THIS IS NOT A NOFO

Ladies/Gentlemen:

The United States Government, represented by the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID)/Uzbekistan, intends to issue a Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) to implement the Central Asia Media and Disinformation Activity. We plan to formally issue the NOFO on/about May 15, 2023.

We welcome your comments and feedback on the attached DRAFT Program Description no later than the date and time indicated on the cover letter. Your input may be shared with us at AlmatyAASolicitations@usaid.gov Tatyana Timoshenkova at ttimoshenkova@usaid.gov and Jannat Koksalova @zkoksalova@usaid.gov.

Responses received may be used for planning and design purposes, as appropriate, in developing the final NOFO. Confirmation of receipt will be issued for comments and feedback under the email subject line “NOFO 72011523RFA00001 PD Comments.”

We do not anticipate answering queries at this phase of the design; a question and answer phase may occur after the final NOFO is posted, based on the instructions in that document.
