Opportunity Information: Apply for 72065621 RFI RESINA
Resiliencia Integrada na Nutricao e Agricultura (RESINA) is a USAID/Mozambique Agriculture, Business, and Environment (AEB) Request for Information (RFI) tied to a planned five-year activity valued at about $29.5 million. The purpose of the RFI is not to fund projects right now, but to gather practical input and assess the capacity of potential local and locally established partners such as NGOs, cooperatives, and private-sector actors. USAID is using the responses to understand who can realistically carry out the kinds of technical and operational tasks envisioned under RESINA and to strengthen planning for a future program design.
The planned RESINA activity is structured as an integrated resilience effort that combines Agriculture ($20.5M), WASH or water, sanitation and hygiene ($5M), and Nutrition ($4M). Its central aim is to reduce chronic poverty, food insecurity, and malnutrition by strengthening the resilience of vulnerable households and communities. The concept is to identify and prioritize the main drivers that keep people trapped in poverty and poor health, then address those drivers in a coordinated way so households can better withstand shocks and stresses and still move forward economically. In practice, RESINA is intended to support both adaptation and longer-term transformation through a systems-based approach, meaning it looks beyond single interventions and considers how markets, services, institutions, and community capacities interact to shape outcomes.
Geographically, RESINA is designed to increase the resilience of smallholder farmers and rural households in selected districts of Zambezia and Nampula provinces. While agriculture is the primary emphasis, the nutrition and WASH components are included to close key gaps that often limit agricultural and livelihood gains. This includes improving dietary outcomes and expanding access to clean water, including water for productive uses where relevant. The idea is that farmers cannot fully benefit from improved production or market opportunities if households are constrained by unsafe water, poor sanitation, and undernutrition, especially among children and women.
RESINA is also framed to fit within USAID's broader Resilience Focus Zone (RFZ) approach, which emphasizes layering, sequencing, and integrating interventions across multiple USAID-funded mechanisms. Rather than operating as a stand-alone project, it is meant to coordinate with other USAID efforts such as the Resilience and Food Security Activity (RFSA) being designed with USAID's Bureau for Humanitarian Assistance, Transform Nutrition in Nampula, the LOGOS Local Government activity, the forthcoming Market Systems Development agriculture activity (PREMIER), Transform WASH, and other related programs. This coordination is meant to reduce duplication, fill programmatic gaps, and ensure interventions reinforce each other over time.
The opportunity itself is explicitly an RFI for information and planning purposes only. It is not a Request for Applications (RFA) or Request for Proposals (RFP), and responses cannot be treated as proposals or used to form any binding agreement with the U.S. Government. USAID is not committing to issue a future solicitation, make an award, or pay any costs incurred by organizations responding to the RFI. Importantly, USAID notes that responding to the RFI does not provide any competitive advantage in later procurement, and the USAID/Mozambique Office will not answer questions submitted in response to the RFI.
Submission guidance is straightforward and focused on brevity and usefulness. Respondents are asked to provide a one-page cover sheet listing the organization name and address and a point of contact with phone number and email. The main response, limited to four pages, should address the technical and contractual questions referenced in the RFI and include comments and suggestions on the draft program description. USAID emphasizes concise, issue-specific feedback, ideally referencing page and section numbers in the draft design document.
