Opportunity Information: Apply for 7200AA23APS00003
The New Partnerships Initiative (NPI): Conflict-Prevention and Recovery Program (CPRP) is a USAID funding opportunity designed to bring more new, nontraditional, and especially local organizations into USAID programming in places affected by conflict, violence, or recovery from crisis. Re-launched in 2019, NPI is meant to put USAID's Acquisition and Assistance Strategy into practice by lowering the typical barriers that make it difficult for newer or smaller actors to work with the Agency. The program emphasizes shifting power and accountability closer to local communities by expanding local engagement, strengthening local capacity, and using more co-creation approaches where solutions are developed collaboratively rather than imposed from the outside. In plain terms, this opportunity is framed around the idea that the people and organizations closest to the conflict dynamics often have the trust, context, and credibility needed to reduce violence and help communities recover, and USAID wants its funding relationships to reflect that reality.
Organizationally, the opportunity sits within USAID's Bureau for Development, Democracy, and Innovation (DDI), under the Local, Faith, and Transformative Partnerships (LFT) Hub. That placement signals that the grant is not just about funding activities on the ground, but also about modernizing how USAID partners, including making partnerships more diverse, equitable, and inclusive. The LFT Hub focus also points to an intentional effort to expand beyond the same set of large, traditional implementers and instead mobilize a wider range of actors, including community-rooted groups and other nontraditional partners that may have strong networks in fragile environments but less experience navigating USAID systems.
Programmatically, the CPRP focus reflects the realities of operating in high-risk or post-conflict settings, where institutions may be weak, mistrusted, captured by factions, or simply overwhelmed by needs. USAID highlights that violence- and conflict-prone environments often feature a frayed social fabric and active "spoilers" who inflame grievances or exploit social divisions. In these settings, external implementers that do not do careful conflict analysis can misunderstand local dynamics and accidentally worsen tensions, even when trying to help. The opportunity therefore stresses the value of partners with deep community connections and local legitimacy who can lead efforts such as preventing violence, resolving disputes, building peace, addressing grievances, and supporting recovery in ways that fit the local context and reduce the risk of doing harm.
From an applicant and award standpoint, this is an Agency for International Development opportunity (CFDA 98.001) in the Regional Development activity category, and it will use a cooperative agreement as the funding instrument. A cooperative agreement typically implies substantial involvement by the Agency during implementation compared with a standard grant, so applicants should expect more ongoing collaboration, coordination, and engagement with USAID as the program is carried out. Eligibility is listed as unrestricted, meaning a wide range of organizations may apply, consistent with NPI's intent to broaden participation and bring in partners that may not have a long track record with USAID. The funding opportunity number is 7200AA23APS00003, and the original closing date shown is April 10, 2024. The listing shows an award ceiling of 0 and no expected awards value specified, which usually means applicants need to rely on the full notice for details on available funding levels, anticipated number of awards, and any ceilings or floors that may be set by specific addenda or later guidance.
Overall, the opportunity is best understood as both a conflict-focused program and a partnership reform mechanism. It is aimed at improving outcomes in conflict prevention and recovery by prioritizing partnerships with organizations that are embedded in local communities and able to navigate complex social and political dynamics, while also advancing USAID's broader agenda to reduce entry barriers, invest in local capacity, and co-create solutions with the people most affected by violence and instability.Apply for 7200AA23APS00003
