Description
The
purpose of this Addendum is to allow USAID/BFS/ARP to develop and implement a
global program of agricultural biotechnology activities consistent with the
purpose and objectives described in the overarching Agricultural Biotechnology
Annual Program Statement (APS), as well as the geographic and technical scope
indicated in this Addendum. To accomplish this, the Addendum establishes a
co-creation process whereby USAID seeks extensive communication with
prospective partners in order to jointly explore and define key challenges and
problems, identify new and existing solutions, build consensus around areas for
action, and/or refine plans to move forward with programs, projects, and
activities pertaining to agricultural biotechnology. Activities developed under
this Addendum (#1) will conform to the Purpose, Theory of Change and Program
Objectives described in the overarching Agricultural Biotechnology APS
(7200AA20APS00003) (https://www.grants.gov/web/grants/view-opportunity.html?oppId=322665).
USAID/BFS/ARP anticipates supporting multiple awards under this Addendum, with
a tentative combined value of up to $70-100 million over an award period of up
to five years.
