Opportunity Information: Apply for RFI 268 22 DIASPORA 01
USAID Lebanon issued a Request for Information (RFI) titled "USAID's Engagement with the Lebanese Diaspora" to gather ideas, perspectives, and practical input from any interested organizations or individuals on how USAID could better engage the Lebanese diaspora to support development outcomes. The central point is that USAID is in an information-gathering and planning phase: it is looking for feedback that could influence future program design, activity planning, and potential interventions related to diaspora engagement, but it is not currently asking for project proposals or funding applications.
This notice is not a grant competition or any kind of solicitation. USAID is explicit that the RFI is not a Request for Proposals (RFP), Request for Applications (RFA), Request for Quotations (RFQ), Invitation for Bids (IFB), or any commitment that an award will be made. No funding is being offered under this RFI, and respondents should not submit applications, proposals, resumes, or proprietary information. Anything sent is voluntary, can be used by USAID without obligation, and USAID may choose to adopt all, some, or none of the input when shaping future documents or opportunities. Responding also does not provide any advantage in any later procurement or grant competition, and organizations are responsible for all costs associated with preparing and submitting a response.
If USAID later decides to pursue an actual funded opportunity connected to this topic, the agency says it would publish that future solicitation publicly on Grants.gov or SAM.gov (beta.sam.gov). Interested parties are expected to monitor those sites themselves for updates, since this RFI does not guarantee that anything further will be released. The overall message is that this is a market research and stakeholder consultation step intended to inform USAID's thinking about diaspora engagement strategies, not a funding opportunity by itself.
From an administrative standpoint, the RFI is listed as discretionary and associated with CFDA number 98.001, with eligibility marked as unrestricted (open to any type of entity, subject to any clarifications in the full text). The opportunity is identified as Funding Opportunity Number "RFI 268 22 DIASPORA 01" and was posted by the U.S. Agency for International Development, USAID Mission in Lebanon (USAID Beirut). Responses had to be submitted in English using the provided Annex 1 format and sent electronically to the designated points of contact, Contracting Officer Amy McQuade and Rana El Jordi, at BusinessQuestionsLebanon@usaid.gov. The response deadline was September 1, 2022, at 5:00 PM Lebanon local time.
Finally, the notice includes standard federal disclaimers: the U.S. Government is not liable for any costs incurred by respondents; no claims can be made against the government based on submission or government use of the information; and the RFI should not be interpreted as a promise to issue a solicitation, make an award, or pay for submitted materials.Apply for RFI 268 22 DIASPORA 01
