This solicitation is the first step in a two-part process.

After reviewing concept notes, PRM will invite (no later than two months after submission) selected organizations to expand their submissions into full single-year (15-page) or multi-year (20-page) proposals with objectives, indicators,

and detailed budgets for each year of the program.

Selected organizations will have 30 calendar days after they are notified of their selection to complete their full proposals.

Organizations may apply as partners or consortia.

For purposes of this notice, PRM considers a consortium to be a group of no less than three NGOs that comprise an agreement, combination, or group formed to undertake, or proposing to undertake, an assistance activity beyond the resources of any one member.

(Note:
NGOs that were approved for a multi-year proposal in FY 2020 will be requested to submit the proposal for their second year of funding separately.) This announcement references PRM’s General NGO Guidelines, which contain additional information on PRM’s priorities and NGO funding strategy with which selected organizations must comply.

Please use both the General NGO Guidelines and this announcement to ensure that your concept note submission is in full compliance with PRM requirements and that the proposed activities are in line with PRM’s priorities.

Concept note submissions that do not reflect the requirements outlined in these guidelines will not be considered.

Concept note activities should primarily support displaced Iraqi and Syrian populations in Iraq, Jordan, Lebanon, and Turkey.

Concept note activities are restricted to beneficiaries living outside of government or UNHCR-run camps, unless otherwise noted in the country-specific guidance.
