Opportunity Information: Apply for 7200AA19APS00002 05
The USAID/Malawi "MOMENTUM" Round-5 grant opportunity is a call for concept papers proposing practical, scalable efforts to strengthen integrated health services in Malawi, with a strong emphasis on improving outcomes for mothers, newborns, and children. The program focus is broad but closely connected: applicants are expected to address maternal, neonatal, and child health (MNCH) alongside voluntary family planning and reproductive health (FP/RH), while also incorporating related areas that directly influence MNCH outcomes, including nutrition, water sanitation and hygiene (WASH), and malaria prevention and treatment. The overall intent is to move high-quality, integrated services "to scale," meaning ideas should go beyond small pilots and show how improvements can be expanded, institutionalized, and sustained across larger geographies or health system levels.
This funding is being offered by the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID), specifically the USAID mission in Lilongwe, Malawi, and it is issued as a Round announcement under an existing USAID Annual Program Statement (APS). In practice, that means the Round-5 document provides Malawi-specific direction, but it does not repeat many of the rules, requirements, and standard instructions that are laid out in the parent worldwide APS. Any organization planning to apply would need to read both documents together, since key details on how USAID expects concept papers to be structured, how applications are evaluated, and what compliance requirements apply are located in the full APS hosted on Grants.gov (linked in the notice).
The funding instrument is a cooperative agreement, which typically indicates a more hands-on partnership model where USAID expects substantial involvement during implementation, such as collaboration on technical approaches, coordination, monitoring, and potentially adaptive management as activities roll out. The total anticipated maximum funding listed for the opportunity is up to $52,000,000 (award ceiling), and USAID/Malawi expects to make two awards under this Round. The opportunity is categorized under Health, and it is associated with CFDA number 98.001, which is the common assistance listing for USAID foreign assistance.
Eligibility is listed as unrestricted, meaning it is generally open to any type of applicant entity, as long as they meet any additional eligibility conditions or clarifications described in the text of the Round announcement and the overarching APS. The posting indicates this is a mandatory opportunity category in the Grants.gov system for this APS Round. The original posting date was September 15, 2021, with an original closing date of October 18, 2021, and applicants were invited at this stage to submit concept papers rather than full applications, consistent with many APS processes that start with a concept screening before requesting full proposals from the most competitive submissions.
At a high level, a competitive concept under this Round would likely need to show a clear, integrated strategy that links clinical service quality and access (for MNCH and FP/RH) with the broader determinants and prevention priorities called out in the notice (nutrition, WASH, and malaria). It would also need to demonstrate an approach suitable for scaling in Malawi, which usually implies strong alignment with Ministry of Health systems, realistic implementation pathways through districts and facilities, measurable results frameworks, and coordination with other health actors so that improvements can be maintained beyond the life of the award.Apply for 7200AA19APS00002 05
