Opportunity Information: Apply for 72052721APS00001
USAID/Peru's Peru New Partnerships and Private Sector Engagement Initiative (Funding Opportunity Number 72052721APS00001) is a partnership-focused grant opportunity designed to bring private sector actors and civil society more directly into the design and delivery of development solutions in Peru. The core idea is to move beyond traditional donor-driven assistance and instead support locally grounded, private and civil sector-driven approaches that align with priorities jointly defined by the Government of Peru (GOP) and the United States Government (USG). USAID is signaling that it wants applicants to co-create solutions with stakeholders on the ground, identify development challenges collaboratively, and pursue the most promising ideas through shared responsibility rather than one-sided funding and implementation.
A central emphasis of the initiative is on multi-stakeholder partnerships that generate "shared value," meaning proposals should demonstrate clear benefits for development outcomes while also making sense for private sector partners to stay engaged (for example, through improved market systems, stronger value chains, workforce development, service delivery models, or innovations that can scale). USAID/Peru explicitly prioritizes innovation and partnerships that pool resources, expertise, and influence across actors, including businesses, industry associations, local organizations, and other parts of civil society. The opportunity also stresses shifting how aid is "transacted" by encouraging models where multiple partners contribute resources (financial or in-kind), share risk, and help drive results in a way that can outlast the grant period.
Another major theme is sustainability through local ownership and systems change. Rather than funding isolated activities, USAID is looking for solutions that convene the right mix of stakeholders to change incentives, behaviors, and institutional practices so that progress can continue after USAID support ends. This includes a strong preference for approaches that build the capacity of the Government of Peru, with the practical intent that public institutions are better prepared to address development challenges as they emerge in the future. In other words, proposals that strengthen governance, coordination, and problem-solving capacity within Peruvian institutions, while also leveraging non-governmental partners, will be particularly aligned with the opportunity's stated direction.
From an administrative standpoint, this is a continuation-category opportunity using an "Other" funding instrument type and an "Other" activity category (as described in the original notice). The awarding agency is the U.S. Agency for International Development, USAID/Peru (USAID-Lima), and the CFDA number listed is 98.001. USAID anticipated making around 10 awards under this initiative, with an award ceiling of up to $20,000,000, indicating support for potentially sizable partnership platforms or large-scale initiatives where strong consortia and leveraged resources are likely important.
The opportunity was created on March 25, 2021, with an original closing date of March 24, 2022, and it used structured concept paper submission "windows" rather than a single open deadline. Except for COVID-19-related concept papers (which were treated differently under the notice), applicants were expected to submit concept papers during specific periods: May 24-28, 2021; June 28-July 2, 2021; August 30-September 3, 2021; October 25-29, 2021; January 24-28, 2022; and March 21-25, 2022. Eligibility is listed broadly as "Others," with additional details referenced in the full announcement, suggesting USAID intended to keep the door open to a range of partner types commonly involved in public-private collaboration, potentially including NGOs, private firms, associations, universities, and other eligible entities depending on the specific eligibility language in the APS.
Overall, this initiative is best understood as an invitation to bring forward partnership concepts that are co-designed with local actors, tied to GOP and USG priorities, capable of mobilizing non-USAID resources, and oriented toward durable systems-level improvements. Competitive concepts would be expected to show credible stakeholder engagement, a clear theory of change that goes beyond short-term outputs, and a realistic pathway to scale and sustain results through market mechanisms, institutional strengthening, or ongoing multi-actor collaboration in Peru.Apply for 72052721APS00001
