Opportunity Information: Apply for 72049219APS00001 03
The Youth Leadership for Democracy (Youth-Led) opportunity is a USAID/Philippines funding addendum released under the Initiatives for Democracy Annual Program Statement (APS) 72049219APS00001. It is grounded in the Foreign Assistance Act of 1961 (as amended) and is meant to support activities that strengthen democratic governance in the Philippines specifically by advancing youth leadership. In practical terms, USAID is looking for youth-centered or youth-driven approaches that help young people play a more active, constructive role in democratic processes, civic participation, and governance-related initiatives, consistent with USAID democracy and governance programming.
The mechanism for this opportunity is a cooperative agreement, which generally means USAID expects substantial involvement during implementation (for example, collaboration on technical direction, coordination, or learning). USAID/Philippines anticipates making a single award under this addendum, with an award ceiling of up to USD 12,000,000, indicating a relatively large, multi-component project rather than a small pilot. The program is categorized under Law, Justice and Legal Services (CFDA 98.001), which signals an emphasis on governance systems, civic institutions, accountability, and rule-of-law-adjacent outcomes, even though the central theme is youth leadership.
This addendum mainly serves as guidance to help prospective applicants develop and submit concept papers, and potentially full applications, for USAID funding. Rather than functioning as a standalone set of instructions, it directs applicants to follow the established submission process and requirements laid out in the parent APS (72049219APS00001) posted on Grants.gov. Applicants are expected to be fully responsive to that APS, including how eligibility is defined, what formats are required, and how concept papers move forward to full applications. Eligibility is listed broadly as "Others," with clarification provided in Section C of the APS, so organizations need to consult that section to confirm whether they qualify and what conditions apply.
Key administrative details include the funding opportunity number 72049219APS00001 03, a creation date of March 16, 2020, and an original closing date of April 8, 2020. Overall, the opportunity is designed to channel a significant, single cooperative agreement toward a youth-led democracy and governance effort in the Philippines, with applicants expected to align closely with USAID/Philippines objectives and the procedures defined in the Initiatives for Democracy APS.Apply for 72049219APS00001 03
