How to Apply
Last Update: April 17, 2012 – New Annual Program Statement (APS) and application procedures Development Innovation Ventures DIV aims to find and support breakthrough solutions to the world's most important development challenges. DIV seeks applicants with innovative ideas—those that address development challenges more efficiently and cost-effectively than standard practice and that could ultimately scale to reach millions of beneficiaries. If you have an innovative idea to propose, please submit a Letter of Interest LOI to DIV. Please carefully review our Annual Program Statement (APS) before submitting your LOI. The APS describes the types of projects for which applications will be considered, the available funding, the process and requirements for submitting applications, the criteria for evaluating applications, and refers prospective applicants to relevant documentation available on the internet. The DIV application process consists of two steps. Applicants must first submit a Letter of Interest LOI. After a competitive review process, DIV will request that successful applicants submit a Full Application. 1. Letter of Interest LOI :Interested applicants must first submit an LOI. All LOI submissions must be submitted using the LOI form. As requested by the LOI, applicants should describe the purpose of the project, summarize the project’s goals, and include financial information for the project among other criteria in the LOI. Attachments to the LOI will not be reviewed. If DIV finds the project proposed in the LOI to be responsive to the selection criteria, then the applicant will be invited to submit a Full Application. Please note that an invitation to submit a Full Application does not constitute intent to award. Deadlines for LOIs: ■June 1, 2012 ■September 1, 2012 ■December 1, 2012 ■March 1, 2013
2. Full Application Only invited applicants will receive the Full Application form. The Full Application form will be provided to invited applicants with submission instructions attached. The Full Application form requests additional and more in-depth information than the LOI. The Full Application is provided in the Annual Program Statement for informational purposes only. All application materials must be in English and submitted electronically to DIVApplications@usaid.gov. Applications sent by any other means (including Grants.gov) will not be considered. Applicants will be notified of their status as their application advances though the review process. For additional information, please carefully review our Annual Program Statement.
