USAID/Guatemala has posted a Request for Information (RFI) titled "Governance for Local Development Project" (Funding Opportunity Number 72052024RFI00001) to collect input from organizations and other interested parties on the proposed approach for a future activity focused on governance and local development. This notice is strictly a market research and planning step, meant to gather feedback that could shape how USAID designs the eventual program.
This is not a funding opportunity and it is not a solicitation. USAID is not asking for proposals, applications, concept papers, or quotations at this stage, and anything submitted in that format will not be reviewed or considered. The agency also emphasizes that the details described in the RFI can change, are not binding, and do not obligate the U.S. Government to release a future solicitation. USAID/Guatemala is also not accepting unsolicited applications or proposals right now, and any costs incurred by respondents in preparing an RFI response are entirely their own responsibility.
Responses are accepted in either English or Spanish through online forms.

The original closing date listed for submitting feedback is April 30, 2024.
The listing is categorized as "Other" rather than a grant or contract competition, with eligibility noted as unrestricted, meaning there is no stated limitation on who may provide input to the RFI. The CFDA/Assistance Listing reference provided is 98.001. The award ceiling is shown as 0 and expected awards are not specified, which aligns with the fact that this is an information-gathering notice rather than a funding announcement.
