Emergency Nutrition and WASH Rapid Response Capacity in Ethiopia

archived

The purpose of this APS is to disseminate the information necessary to enable prospective applicants to apply for USAID awards using OFDA International Disaster Assistance and FFP Title II emergency resources. The aim is to support a well-coordinated emergency water, sanitation and hygiene (WASH) and nutrition rapid response capacity that can be triggered to respond to acute emergencies in vulnerable areas of Ethiopia, to ensure linkages between WASH and nutrition programs, and to provide specialized nutrition commodities as part of a community management of acute malnutrition package (CMAM). Prospective applicants will also be expected to address how proposed projects will ensure continuous monitoring and analysis of the humanitarian situation and immediately respond to acute emergencies via direct implementation or disbursement of small grants.
