Inclusive Political Processes in South Sudan Program: The United States Government, represented by the United States Agency for International Development (USAID), expects to issue a request for applications (RFA) in May 2013 for a program that builds on strengthening Political Competition and Consensus Building in the Republic of South Sudan (RSS). Subject to the availability of funds, this competitively awarded five-year, Cooperative Agreement will focus on improving the capacities of key institutions that anchor democratic transformation in South Sudan. Specifically, the program will provide support to strengthen the ability of the National Constitutional Review Commission (NCRC) to establish an operational capacity to manage and administer credible constitutional review, as well as the National Elections Commission (NEC), Electoral Management body (EMB) and State election institutions to administer credible, transparent and fair elections while improving the long term capacity of the EMB to administering elections in South Sudan. Furthermore, the program will strengthen the capacity of civil society organizations for citizen engagement, advocacy and empowerment, to ensure citizen participation in key political processes. The program will also support legislative strengthening of both the State and the National Legislative Assemblies to improve their effectiveness in governance, accountability and constituency representations. Assistance will be provided for political parties to participate in elections and other political processes in South Sudan. USAID will advise applicants of project objectives and desired outcome; however, applicants must provide the methodology or approach for implementation of the project. Applicants will have the opportunity to propose a sound, cost effective approach for the Program. Additionally, Applicants are strongly encouraged to consider implementation through a consortium with other organizations including but not limited to Public International Organizations and local organizations; however, principal responsibility for implementation of the program should rest with the applicant who should act as the prime and have final responsibility for implementation and performance monitoring of the program.
