Grant Description
This integrated, flexible, multi-sectoral initiative will serve as the flagship project for the Mission’s implementation of the 2010-2012 USAID/Yemen Strategy. This integrated, multi-sectoral program will be technically complementary to another new USAID/Yemen project, the Responsive Governance Project (RGP). This project is not a traditional development initiative, but it will rely heavily on tried and proven as well as innovative tools from transition and development environments. This project is intended to mitigate the drivers of instability in some of Yemen’s most difficult areas through the facilitation and implementation of quality government service delivery, job creation, responsive local governance, and active civic participation. Rapidly responding to community-based initiatives to demonstrate USAID’s and the Government of Yemen’s commitment to underserved communities will be a hallmark of this project. Youth under 25 years old, representing 75% of Yemen’s population, will be a particularly important demographic group throughout implementation. Activities will quickly and effectively mitigate critical threats to stability in Yemen by building trust and relationships between communities with historically difficult relations with Yemeni authorities and the citizens in targeted areas. The implementer will partner with and make extensive use of local, Yemeni organizations during the implementation of the project.
