New Opportunities to Partner with MCC
 

MCC seeks to partner with organizations that share our goal of achieving poverty reduction through economic growth. MCC’s Partnership Annual Program Statement (APS) is the agency’s primary mechanism to co-create, co-fund, and co-implement partnerships that support MCC’s ability to achieve our mission and programmatic goals. MCC invites organizations to submit concept papers that bring new ideas, technologies, or practices to partner with us in addressing specific challenges or opportunities as outlined in the APS.

 

In Indonesia, MCC invested in renewable energy and natural resource management to protect the country’s natural capital. MCC’s APS has led to partnerships that enhance MCC’s capabilities in environmental and natural resource economics.

 

Partnership Opportunity 7: Fiscal Analysis Partnership

Summary: Fiscal policy is the most powerful tool democratic governments have to reduce poverty through growth. The analytic tools that MCC deploys to advance its mission focus on relaxing the binding constraints on economic growth, promoting efficiency through rigorous cost-benefit analysis, and achieving a required minimum rate of return. MCC seeks to partner with institutions that have specialized capacity and expertise with developing and deploying tools for fiscal analysis in low and lower-middle income countries. Through partnership, MCC aims to analyze the effects of public expenditure and revenue mobilization across income levels so that consideration of inclusiveness and poverty reduction potential can be better integrated into early project development; investigate opportunities to further disaggregate analysis of effects by region, gender, and other population characteristics to better inform decision making in project design and policy choice; incorporate these analyses during the project development process to ensure economic growth driven by investments is pro-poor, inclusive, and promotes gender equity; and expand learning opportunities across the development community regarding incidence analysis and the impact of policy design on development outcomes.

Due Date: May 10, 2020
