The U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) has forecasted a release of a Broad Agency Announcement (BAA) aimed to expand knowledge and advance the development of new methods, approaches, and tools to enhance health outcomes in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). USAID anticipates inviting interested parties to collaborate in co-creating, co-designing, and co-investing to support the agency in developing, piloting, and scaling innovative R&D solutions to address global health issues outlined in the BAA problem and challenge statements, including reducing child and maternal mortality, addressing HIV/AIDS, and combating infectious diseases through addenda to the BAA, which will be issued sometime after the BAA is published through no later than February 20, 2028. Lewis-Burke intends to notify interested clients of this BAA and related addenda that will be of interest to institutions of higher education and other technical organizations we represent. Those interested in this opportunity are encouraged to look at the forecast here.
