- SOLICITATION NUMBER:�7200AA24R00056 ISSUANCE DATE:�April 24, 2024 CLOSING DATE AND TIME:�May 24, 2024 at 4:30PM EDT SUBJECT:�Solicitation for U.S. Personal Service Contractor (USPSC) Dear Prospective Offerors: The United States Government, represented by the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID), is seeking offers from qualified persons to provide personal services under contract as described in this solicitation. Offers must be in accordance with�Attachment 1�of this solicitation. Incomplete or unsigned offers will not be considered. Offerors should retain copies of all Offer materials for their records. At USAID, Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Accessibility (DEIA) is a priority, and we are greater than the sum of our parts. When we integrate DEIA in our programs, policies, partnerships, and people (workforce), we are better able to understand and meet the needs of those we serve worldwide. USAID will evaluate all offerors based on the stated evaluation criteria. USAID encourages all individuals, including those from disadvantaged and under-represented groups, to respond to the solicitation. This solicitation in no way obligates USAID to award a PSC contract, nor does it commit USAID to pay any cost incurred in the preparation and submission of the offer. Any questions must be directed in writing to the Point of Contact specified in�Attachment 1. Sincerely, Mir Ershadullah, Contracting Officer ----------------------------------------------------------------------- The PLI Office is recruiting for a Democratic Climate Action Advisor to help lead the DRG Bureau�s efforts to advance USAID�s Climate Strategy vision � �to work on the ground with partner governments and local actors to set the global trajectory toward our vision of a resilient, prosperous, and equitable world with net-zero greenhouse gas emissions.� The Strategy calls for a �whole-of-Agency� approach in which all development sectors play their part. In the case of the DRG community, the Strategy goals include �Strengthen[ing] responsive, transparent governance and citizen engagement for effective climate action� as part of systems and transformational change needed across all development sectors (transportation, energy, agriculture, etc.). The Democratic Climate Action Advisor will play a central role in advancing USAID's democracy and climate objectives by supporting equitable and ambitious actions to confront the climate crisis. Democratic decline and climate change are linked development challenges and DRG principles and approaches are needed to defuse the climate crisis. For example, the incumbent will work with the DRG cadre in USAID Missions to identify entry points where supporting climate action through DRG programming can also strengthen democratic norms, processes, and institutions. This type of �democratic climate action� that advances DRG principles, tools, and approaches to achieve dual climate and democracy outcomes is intended to help host countries to deliver on their climate goals and improve public confidence in democratic governments� ability to �deliver� results that people care about. A core aspect of this work is to collaborate with local partners to strengthen the political advocacy, engagement, and leadership of critical populations (youth, women, Indigenous Peoples, etc.) on climate action.
