Improving Adolescent Health and Well-Being in Urban Areas: The United States Agency for International Development (USAID) is issuing this Broad Agency Announcement (BAA) to seek participants to co-create, co-design, co-invest, and collaborate in the development, testing, and scaling of innovative, practical and cost-effective interventions and approaches that seek to improve the health and well-being of urban, poor, unmarried adolescents aged 15-19 by increasing the voluntary uptake and continued use of family planning products and services in select urban areas in Nigeria. USAID invites organizations, companies and investors to submit an Expression of Interest (EOI). This BAA and any subsequent Addenda will allow co-design and co-creation to the maximum extent to create high-quality, effective partnerships with great efficiency in time and resources. USAID will invite selected organizations, as detailed below, to co-create Research and Development (R&D) solutions to the Problem and Challenge Statement, including those organizations that have ideas, expertise, resources and/or funding to add to potential solutions. Co-Investing: USAID seeks to align goals with partners under this BAA to facilitate shared responsibility, shared risk, and shared resourcing. Shared resourcing requires that cash and other resources, both tangible and intangible, such as in-kind contributions, expertise, intellectual property, brand value, high-value coordination, and access to key people, places, and information, are directed towards reaching the solution to the Problem/Challenge. Co-investing does not require equal shared resources (such as 1:1 leverage), but rather resource contributions that are appropriate to the specific activity's objectives, considering the comparative advantages brought by the participation of each party.
