LASER PULSE is pleased to announce the Call for Concept Notes for USAID’s Bureau for Humanitarian Assistance. We seek Concept Notes (CNs) from multidisciplinary teams (preferable)
of researchers and development professionals or individual experts, to undertake a resilience, food and nutrition security
Desk Review and Market Study (DRMS); a Political Economy Analysis (PEA) and a secondary data analysis to inform the design strategies and approaches of future multi-year Resilience Food Security Activities (RFSA) in USAID Resilience Focus Countries.
Eligibility:
Every applying team needs to have at least one participant from a Higher Education Institution (HEI). Participation from HEIs in Low and Middle Income Countries (LMICs) is strongly
encouraged. The CN will be assessed according to the strength and experience of the team as a whole (see below).
Preference will be given to concept notes from multidisciplinary teams in a country, however individual concept notes may be considered to fill certain expertise on
other research team applications. The PI may apply for multiple concept notes. Individuals may participate in more than one team CN.
This Call for CN is restricted to USAID’s Resilience Focus Countries that are: Burkina Faso, Democratic Republic of the Congo, Haiti, Ethiopia, Kenya, Malawi, Mali,
