Opportunity Information: Apply for 72068524APS00002
This USAID Senegal (USAID-Dakar) grant opportunity, titled "Malaria Elimination in Senegal, Community Health and Strengthening MNCH activities" (Funding Opportunity Number 72068524APS00002), is a discretionary health-focused grant designed to accelerate progress in Senegal's northern regions by combining malaria elimination efforts with stronger facility-based maternal, newborn, and child health (MNCH) services and improved community health programming. The work is concentrated in Matam, Saint-Louis, and Louga, reflecting a geographic strategy that aligns health system strengthening with disease elimination goals in areas where malaria incidence is already relatively low. The opportunity sits under CFDA 98.001 and is structured to support targeted programmatic activities tied to clear deliverables.
A central component is Addendum #24, the Malaria Elimination Activity, which is explicitly tied to Senegal's national objective of eliminating malaria by 2030. In the first year, programming focuses on the northern zone (Matam, St-Louis, and Louga), chosen because these regions have annual malaria incidence below the elimination threshold of 5 cases per 1,000 population. The solicitation notes an anticipated approach using a fixed amount "renewal" award mechanism, meaning funding is expected to be linked to completion of defined activities and achievement of milestones rather than purely cost-reimbursement. In practical terms, this signals an emphasis on measurable progress, verification of results, and performance-based disbursement structures suited to elimination-phase work, where surveillance, targeted responses, and maintaining gains are often as important as broad coverage.
Addendum #25 covers the Strengthening Maternal, Newborn, and Child Health Care Activity, aimed at improving the quality of care delivered inside health facilities across the same three regions. The focus is not only general service improvement but also specific support to the functionality of obstetrical surgical units (referred to as "blocs") and neonatal care services. Alongside those higher-acuity service areas, the activity also emphasizes raising the quality of family planning, maternal and child health services, and nutrition services available at facilities. This framing suggests a quality-of-care agenda that may include clinical standards, readiness of facilities, referral and emergency response capacity, staffing and mentoring, supervision systems, and strengthening essential inputs that make services reliable for mothers and newborns.
Addendum #26 addresses the Community Health and Social Behavior Change Activity, which targets demand, access, and community-level service delivery in Saint-Louis, Matam, and Louga. The stated purpose is to improve use of quality community health services, while also increasing preventive behaviors and care-seeking for a broad package: MNCH, family planning, nutrition, and zoonotic diseases. It also includes an explicit objective to improve leadership, management, and governance of community health, indicating that USAID is looking beyond one-off campaigns and toward stronger community health structures, local coordination, accountability, and management capacity. The inclusion of social behavior change suggests interventions likely oriented toward norms, knowledge, household practices, and timely service utilization, integrated with community health worker networks and local leadership systems.
The opportunity anticipates up to three awards, with an award ceiling of $3,000,000, and an original closing date of June 28, 2024. Eligibility is restricted to local organizations, which signals an intentional focus on local leadership and implementation capacity within Senegal. Overall, the opportunity is designed as a coordinated package for the northern regions: pushing malaria from low incidence toward elimination, strengthening facility readiness and quality for mothers and newborns (including surgical and neonatal services), and improving community-level service utilization and behaviors while building stronger community health governance.Apply for 72068524APS00002
