Opportunity Information: Apply for 720 696 23 RFA 00001
USAID Rwanda is soliciting applications for a cooperative agreement to implement the THRIVE Health Systems Strengthening NEXT (HSS NEXT) activity. The central aim of this opportunity is to strengthen the resilience of Rwanda's health system so it can consistently deliver high-quality services and achieve equitable health outcomes for all Rwandans, even when facing shocks or constraints. The activity is framed around getting better results from available resources, improving how the system is led and managed, and ensuring the workforce and financing structures can sustain service quality over time.
HSS NEXT is designed to advance the USAID Vision for Health System Strengthening 2030, which emphasizes three system-wide goals: equity, quality, and resource optimization. In practice, this means the program is expected to help Rwanda reduce disparities in access and outcomes, raise and maintain standards of care, and improve efficiency and sustainability in how health services are financed and delivered. Rather than focusing on a single disease area, the opportunity targets the underlying functions that keep the entire health system performing well.
The technical focus areas highlighted in the notice center on core health system functions: health financing; leadership, management, and governance; and the health workforce. Applicants should expect that proposed activities will need to address how money flows through the health system and how it is used, strengthen decision-making and accountability structures, improve management capacity at different levels of the system, and support the development, deployment, and performance of health workers. The overall expectation is that these improvements will help Rwanda sustain quality services and protect gains in population health in a more efficient and equitable way.
This funding opportunity is issued as a discretionary award and will be implemented through a cooperative agreement, which typically indicates substantial involvement by USAID during implementation compared with a standard grant. USAID anticipates making one award, with an expected ceiling of $24,900,000. The opportunity is listed under CFDA 98.001 and is posted by the Agency for International Development, Rwanda (USAID-Kigali). The funding opportunity number is 720 696 23 RFA 00001.
Eligibility is described as unrestricted (open to any type of entity), with the important caveat that applicants still must meet the specific eligibility requirements and submit all required information as laid out in the Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO), particularly the standards described in Section C. Applicants are instructed to direct questions to the point of contact identified in Sections G and D.1 of the NOFO by the deadline stated on the NOFO cover page. For technical issues related to accessing the NOFO or registering through Grants.gov, the notice points applicants to the Grants.gov Helpdesk at 1-800-518-4726 or support@grants.gov. The opportunity was created on December 20, 2022, with an original closing date of February 17, 2023, and interested applicants are referred to the attached NOFO for complete details on requirements, submission instructions, and evaluation criteria.Apply for 720 696 23 RFA 00001
