Opportunity Information: Apply for 72065424RFA00001

The Angola Health Assistance Program (AHAP) is a competitive U.S. government grant opportunity issued by USAID/Southern Africa (based in Pretoria) to support a health-focused activity in Angola. USAID is looking for qualified organizations to design and implement the program under a cooperative agreement, which means USAID typically expects substantial involvement during implementation compared to a standard grant. The legal authority for the award comes from the Foreign Assistance Act of 1961, as amended, and the opportunity is published as a Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO), which lays out the program goals, required application contents, and how proposals will be reviewed and scored.

Funding is significant and structured for a multi-year effort. Subject to the availability of funds and at USAID's discretion, the Agency anticipates providing up to $70,000,000 in total USAID funding over a five-year period. USAID expects to make one award, indicating that the Agency is likely seeking a single prime implementer that can manage the full scope of work, oversee partners or subrecipients if needed, and deliver results at scale. The funding activity category is Health, and the listing is associated with CFDA/Assistance Listing number 98.001, which is commonly used for USAID foreign assistance.

Eligibility for this opportunity is unrestricted, meaning USAID is not limiting competition to a particular type of entity based on nationality or organizational category within the summary provided. In practice, applicants still must meet all eligibility and compliance requirements stated in the NOFO, including any standards in Section C and any submission rules in Sections C and D. USAID emphasizes that applicants should read the full NOFO carefully to understand the activity being requested (Section A), how to prepare and submit a compliant application package (Sections C and D), and the evaluation and merit review criteria that will determine which application is selected (Section E). This is important because USAID competitions are usually strict about format, mandatory certifications, required annexes, and technical and cost application components.

Key identifiers and dates are clearly provided for tracking and submission planning. The funding opportunity title is "Angola Health Assistance Program (AHAP)" and the opportunity number is 72065424RFA00001. The opportunity was created on February 15, 2024, and the original closing date for submissions is April 15, 2024. The award ceiling is $70,000,000, the expected number of awards is one, the opportunity category is listed as "Other," and the funding instrument type is a cooperative agreement. Anyone considering applying should rely on the attached NOFO for the authoritative requirements, including the detailed statement of objectives, geographic coverage within Angola, expected results and indicators, budgeting rules, and any mandated partner coordination or government engagement expectations.
