USAID/Georgia Local Self-Government Strengthening Activity

The purpose of this Request for Information (RFI) is to conduct market research, determine the interest of capable organizations to provide USAID/Georgia with technical, advisory, and capacity building services, and request comments and recommendations from stakeholders to identify ways we can work together to strengthen local self-governance in Georgia over the next 5 years. USAID/Georgia also seeks feedback on its approach to better shape the activity for a potential future solicitation and understand what is feasible with the estimated budget.

Any funding proposals submitted in response to this request will not be considered. Responses to this notice must be received no later than the due date and time stated above in this notice.
