Opportunity Information: Apply for RFI CH LIBERIA
USAID/Liberia, through its Office of Acquisition and Assistance in Monrovia, released this notice as a Request for Information (RFI) tied to a draft concept and Theory of Change for what it calls the "Liberia Community Health Activity." The central purpose is not to award funds right away, but to invite partners, implementers, and other stakeholders to review the draft design and provide comments and suggestions that could strengthen the final program approach. USAID is explicitly asking for feedback on the entire Theory of Change document, using this RFI to shape what may later become a formal procurement or assistance competition.
The opportunity is framed around USAID's planned future investments in community health and water, sanitation and hygiene (WASH) services in Liberia, with an emphasis on improving health outcomes for rural and disadvantaged communities. USAID's underlying theory is that if Liberia has a well-coordinated, fully functional national community health program, and if quality health and WASH services are expanded alongside greater uptake of proven, high-impact interventions, then population health will improve. The interventions highlighted include family planning, routine immunization services for children under one year of age, maternal, neonatal, and child health services, and malaria prevention and treatment. In other words, the draft design links stronger community-level systems and service delivery with increased use of priority preventive and curative services.
USAID signals that it anticipates one or two future funding opportunities emerging from this planning process. The first prospective funding stream would likely focus on expanding the Community Health Assistant (CHA) program, which is Liberia's cornerstone community health workforce model. The second would be complementary and more focused on community engagement and behavior change at the community and household level, aiming to boost the impact of CHA work, strengthen linkages with facility-based care, and support WASH-related behaviors and services. The way this is described suggests a two-part strategy: one component strengthens the supply side and workforce reach through CHAs, while the other strengthens demand, trust, and sustained behavior change so that households actually adopt recommended health practices and use services consistently.
From a process standpoint, USAID explains that the draft Theory of Change is expected to inform and lead to a finalized Statement of Work or a Program Description. Those documents are typically what USAID uses to launch a formal solicitation (for contracts) or a Notice of Funding Opportunity (for grants and cooperative agreements). The place of performance is Liberia, and the anticipated period of performance could be up to five years, indicating USAID is considering a multi-year effort intended to support program scale-up and durability rather than a short pilot.
Administrative details in the notice reinforce that this is an "Other" category announcement and instrument type, with no stated award ceiling and an expected number of awards listed as two, consistent with the idea of up to two complementary follow-on awards. The posting date is July 31, 2019, with an original closing date of August 14, 2019, and the CFDA reference is 98.001. Eligibility is broadly labeled as "Others," with additional eligibility clarification presumably contained in the full notice materials. The key takeaway is that this RFI is an early market and stakeholder input step, designed to improve the final activity design before USAID decides whether and how to compete the actual implementation funding.Apply for RFI CH LIBERIA
