Opportunity Information: Apply for 720FDA19RFA00001
USAID is offering a discretionary funding opportunity for a cooperative agreement to carry out the Haiti Disaster Risk Reduction Project focused specifically on the repair and upgrading of evacuation centers. The activity falls under the Disaster Prevention and Relief category (CFDA 98.001) and is intended to strengthen disaster readiness and response capacity in Haiti by improving facilities used to shelter and protect people during emergencies.
The opportunity is identified as "Haiti Disaster Risk Reduction Project: Repair and Upgrading of Evacuation Centers" under Funding Opportunity Number 720FDA19RFA00001. USAID anticipates making a single award, with an estimated maximum funding level (award ceiling) of USD 4,800,000. Because the award instrument is a cooperative agreement, applicants should expect substantial involvement by USAID during implementation, meaning the work will likely require close coordination with USAID staff on planning, technical decisions, monitoring, and other key aspects of project execution.
Eligibility is listed as unrestricted, meaning the solicitation is broadly open to any type of qualified entity, unless additional eligibility limits are described elsewhere in the full notice (referenced as the "Additional Information on Eligibility" text field). In practical terms, this generally allows a wide range of organizations to apply, including NGOs, for-profit firms, universities, and other institutions, provided they can meet USAID requirements and demonstrate the technical and managerial capacity to complete construction-related rehabilitation work tied to humanitarian and disaster risk reduction outcomes.
The timeline for the opportunity is anchored by a creation/posting date of May 22, 2019, with an application closing date of June 21, 2019. Questions from prospective applicants are due by May 30, 2019 at 5:00 PM Eastern Time, indicating that USAID intended a fairly short turnaround between release and submission, and that applicants would need to move quickly to assemble compliant technical and cost applications, form any necessary partnerships, and prepare implementation approaches that align with USAID expectations for disaster risk reduction infrastructure improvements.
At its core, the solicitation seeks a partner to improve evacuation centers so they are more functional, safer, and better suited to support communities before, during, and after disasters. While the brief synopsis does not list specific construction standards or technical scopes, the title and framing imply work that may include structural repairs, upgrades to basic services and safety features, and enhancements that increase the centers' reliability as shelters during extreme weather and other emergencies. The overall goal is to reduce disaster impacts by ensuring that evacuation sites are usable and resilient when they are most needed, contributing to broader preparedness and risk reduction efforts in Haiti.Apply for 720FDA19RFA00001
