The overall goal of the program is to build the capacity of Federal Ministry of Health (FMoH) with regards to SBCC interventions while also developing effective messages and coordinating SBCC messaging across stakeholders. The authority for the RFA is found in the Foreign Assistance Act of 1961, as amended, and the Grants and Cooperative Agreement Act of 1977. While for-profit firms may participate, pursuant to 22 CFR 226.81, it is USAID policy not to award profit under assistance instruments such as cooperative agreements. However, all reasonable, allocable, and allowable expenses, both direct and indirect, which are related to the grant program and are in accordance with applicable cost standards (22 CFR 226, OMB Circular A-122 for non-profit organization, OMB Circular A-21 for universities, and the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Part 31 for-profit organizations), may be paid under the Cooperative Agreement.USAID expects to award one Cooperative Agreement based on this RFA. Subject to the availability of funds, USAID intends to allocate approximately $22.2 million funding to be allocated over a Five (5) year period. USAID reserves the right to fund any or none of the applications submitted.The Government of Ethiopia laws require prior registration for a foreign and local organization in order to implement programs or conduct any business in Ethiopia. Any apparently successful applicant must provide a copy of the certification of registration and license from the appropriate Ministry/Agency of the Federal Democratic Republic of Ethiopia prior to the start of implementation of the program. All local institutions or affiliates of international organizations must be registered as a legal entity in Ethiopia. Local registration is not a requirement at application time, but it is required prior to the implementation of the program.Applicants under consideration for an award that have never received funding from USAID will be subject to a pre-award audit to determine fiscal responsibility, adequacy of financial controls and established an indirect cost rate. Award will be made to the responsible applicant whose application offers the greatest value to the U.S. Government.
