USAID/Malawi, is announcing the Strengthening Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics & Expanding Degree Opportunities (SSTEMEDO) Addendum to the Higher Education for Leadership, Innovation, and Exchange (HELIX), a New Partnerships Initiative (NPI) Annual Program Statement (APS), hereafter known as the HELIX APS.Through this SSTEMEDO Addendum, USAID/Malawi aims to create new partnerships between Malawi and United States (U.S.) higher education institutions (HEIs) in efforts to amplify the Agency’s work in the higher education space. While Concept Notes received under this Addendum are to be led by U.S. HEIs, collaboration and partnerships with relevant non-academic institutions is anticipated. The overall Agency NPI seeks to support partner countries’ progress on the Journey to Self-Reliance, achieve sustainable and resilient results, and catalyze more effective partnering for impact. This Addendum disseminates information to prospective Applicants so they may develop and submit Concept Notes in response and, if selected to continue in the process, ultimately be considered for USAID funding.
