Opportunity Information: Apply for 72068722RFA00002
The USAID grant opportunity titled "Disability-Inclusive Climate Action" (Funding Opportunity Number 72068722RFA00002) is a competitive grant issued by the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID), specifically the USAID Madagascar Mission based in Antananarivo. It sits under an "Other" opportunity category and uses a grant instrument, with its funding activity category also listed as "Other," meaning applicants should rely on the detailed notice language (and any referenced explanation fields) to understand the exact program framing and priorities. The assistance listing is tied to CFDA 98.001, which is commonly associated with USAID foreign assistance programming.
At its core, this opportunity is about climate equity that includes people with disabilities in meaningful, practical ways. USAID is seeking concept submissions that strengthen the ability of persons with disabilities and their representative organizations to respond to climate change. The emphasis is not only on protecting people from climate impacts, but on ensuring they are positioned as active participants in climate solutions. In other words, proposals are expected to go beyond viewing disability solely through a vulnerability lens and instead show how people with disabilities can be leaders, innovators, and decision-makers in climate adaptation and broader climate action efforts.
The program focus is described as "disability-inclusive climate action," which, in the way USAID frames it here, has two connected goals. First, it aims to bolster resilience for persons with disabilities against climate-related shocks and stresses, which could include extreme weather events, changing rainfall patterns, droughts, flooding, food insecurity, health risks, and disruptions to livelihoods and services. Second, it aims to situate persons with disabilities and their representative organizations so they can contribute to climate action as positive agents of change, including being recognized as sources of solutions within their local and national contexts. That implies concepts should demonstrate intentional inclusion in planning, governance, community action, and potentially advocacy or systems change, rather than treating accessibility as an add-on.
USAID signals that concepts need to be grounded in the applicant's country context, meaning proposals should clearly explain the local climate risks, the disability inclusion gaps in climate programming, and the roles that organizations of persons with disabilities (often referred to as OPDs or DPOs) can realistically play in addressing those risks. Competitive submissions would typically be expected to show a clear theory of change connecting activities to resilience outcomes and leadership outcomes, along with practical steps for ensuring participation, accessibility, and representation throughout implementation.
In terms of basic funding parameters, the notice lists an award ceiling of USD 1,000,000 and indicates USAID expects to make one award. Eligibility is described as unrestricted (open to any type of entity), subject to any additional eligibility details that may be included elsewhere in the full announcement. Applicants are instructed to apply using the specific application form provided as Attachment A, suggesting the submission is standardized and that compliance with the required format is an important part of being considered responsive.
Key dates in the notice show the opportunity was created on February 18, 2022, with an original closing date of March 25, 2022. The issuing agency is USAID, Madagascar (USAID-Antananarivo). Overall, the grant is positioned as a targeted investment in inclusive climate resilience and leadership, using disability inclusion as a core design principle and elevating persons with disabilities and their representative organizations as central actors in climate action rather than peripheral beneficiaries.Apply for 72068722RFA00002
