Opportunity Information: Apply for 72052324APS00001
The Mexico CDCS Annual Program Statement (APS) is a USAID Mexico Mission funding opportunity (Funding Opportunity No. 72052324APS00001) issued under the Foreign Assistance Act of 1961, as amended. It is designed to support USAID Mexico's Country Development Cooperation Strategy (CDCS) goal: "U.S.-Mexico Strategic Partnership Advanced to Promote Mutual Security and Prosperity." In practical terms, USAID is using this APS as an open, mission-wide solicitation to gather strong ideas from a broad range of organizations, then selectively invite those applicants to submit full proposals, and ultimately make awards for activities that align with USAID Mexico's strategic priorities.
The APS is structured to start with Concept Papers rather than requiring every applicant to submit a full application upfront. USAID's intent is to review these initial concepts, identify the most promising ones, and then request Full Applications from selected submitters. This approach typically reduces the burden on applicants and allows USAID to shape a more targeted pipeline of potential awards that match current needs, geographic priorities, and evolving conditions in Mexico.
The program priorities center on two named Development Objectives. The first objective (DO1) focuses on reducing impunity and violence in targeted regions, which generally implies interventions connected to citizen security, justice-sector strengthening, accountability, rule of law, prevention of violence, improved investigative and prosecutorial capacity, community-based violence reduction, protection of vulnerable populations, and efforts that reduce the ability of criminal actors to operate with impunity. The second objective (DO2) focuses on advancing transparent and climate-resilient economic growth, which points toward activities that strengthen inclusive economic opportunity while improving governance and integrity in economic systems, and building resilience to climate impacts. This can include work related to transparency and anti-corruption safeguards in economic decision-making, more resilient livelihoods and value chains, climate adaptation and risk reduction for communities and businesses, and market-based approaches that support long-term, sustainable growth.
In addition to those two Development Objectives, the APS explicitly signals interest in projects that address irregular migration and integration as it affects Mexico. That language suggests USAID may consider concepts that either reduce the drivers of irregular migration, improve protections and services for migrants and displaced people, support safe and orderly integration of newcomers into local economies and communities, or strengthen local systems that manage migration-related pressures. The APS framing recognizes that migration dynamics intersect with security, economic opportunity, governance, and community resilience, so concepts that connect these themes in a realistic and evidence-based way are likely to be relevant.
Administratively, this is a discretionary opportunity and lists the funding instrument type as "Other" and the activity category as "Other," which usually indicates USAID is keeping flexibility in the types of awards or mechanisms it may use depending on the proposed activity and the applicant. The CFDA/assistance listing number associated with the opportunity is 98.001. Eligibility is listed as "Unrestricted," meaning a wide range of applicants may apply, potentially including non-profits, for-profits, universities, and other organizations, subject to USAID's standard requirements and any specific conditions described in the full APS.
The total potential award ceiling is listed at up to USD 100,000,000, which signals a large possible overall level of funding under the APS, though it does not guarantee any particular award size or number of awards. The field for "Expected Awards" is not specified in the provided data, so applicants should assume that the number of awards could vary and will depend on funding availability, concept quality, and USAID Mexico's programming decisions over the APS period. The opportunity was created on 2024-05-03, and the listed original closing date is 2025-05-02, which implies there is a defined window for submitting concept papers (and possibly multiple review rounds or submission deadlines, depending on how the APS is structured in the full notice).
Overall, this APS is a broad call for program concepts that advance U.S.-Mexico cooperation by improving security and justice outcomes in prioritized regions, strengthening transparent and climate-resilient economic growth, and potentially addressing migration pressures and integration challenges. Organizations with interventions that can show credible pathways to reducing violence and impunity, expanding economic opportunity with integrity, and increasing resilience to climate and migration-related shocks will be the best fit for the direction USAID Mexico is advertising here.Apply for 72052324APS00001
