Amplify Family Planning and Sexual and Reproductive Health (Amplify-FP) is a USAID-funded regional health initiative focused on expanding access to and use of voluntary family planning and broader sexual and reproductive health services in West Africa. It is described as the flagship family planning and reproductive health (FP/RH) project of the USAID/West Africa Regional Health Office, with an emphasis on driving large-scale, sustainable improvements in high-need settings. The activity is designed as a five-year effort to accelerate progress in four priority countries (Burkina Faso, Cote d'Ivoire, Niger, and Togo) while also supporting continued momentum and learning across the wider West Africa region.
At the core of the opportunity is a scale-up and replication agenda centered on family planning "high impact practices" (HIPs). The project aims to strategically support and influence a broad range of stakeholders so that proven approaches are not only implemented as isolated pilots, but deliberately expanded and institutionalized, especially in large urban and peri-urban areas where population growth and service demand are often concentrated. In practical terms, the grant is meant to help governments, service delivery partners, and other actors take interventions that are known to work and bring them to greater coverage and quality, so improvements in contraceptive access and use can be sustained beyond the life of the project.
Amplify-FP is explicitly linked to the regional commitments of the Ouagadougou Partnership, a coalition of West African governments and partners working to strengthen family planning. The opportunity notes alignment with the Partnership goal of reaching 2.2 million additional family planning users by 2020 and contributing to targets set for the years beyond. This positioning signals that the project is not operating in isolation; it is meant to be a catalytic regional mechanism that helps countries meet shared benchmarks by improving program performance, scaling effective strategies, and supporting policy and system conditions that make expanded access feasible.
The project also builds on earlier USAID and partner investments, particularly lessons and gains from the preceding Regional Health Office effort known as "AgirPF," as well as other projects and bilateral mission activities in West Africa. It highlights recent regional policy progress such as the adoption of a task shifting/task sharing policy by the ECOWAS Assembly of Health Ministers, implying that Amplify-FP will take advantage of an enabling policy environment to expand who can provide certain family planning services safely and effectively, which can be especially important in addressing health workforce constraints and increasing service availability in busy urban and peri-urban facilities.
From a funding and administrative standpoint, the opportunity is issued by the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID), West Africa, with USAID-Ghana listed in the agency naming line. It is a discretionary funding opportunity using a cooperative agreement mechanism, which typically means USAID expects substantial involvement in guiding and collaborating on implementation compared with a standard grant. The funding opportunity number is 72062418RFA00005, and it is categorized under the health activity area with CFDA number 98.001. The posted award ceiling is $18,500,000, with one award expected, indicating a single prime implementer would likely lead the overall regional effort, potentially with subpartners. The opportunity was created on February 16, 2018, with an original closing date of March 26, 2018, and eligibility is listed broadly as "Others" with details to be clarified in the full eligibility text of the announcement.
Overall, Amplify-FP is framed as a regionally significant investment intended to translate evidence-based family planning approaches into large-scale, sustained improvements in service access and contraceptive use. By concentrating on replication and scale-up of high impact practices, leveraging regional policy advancements like task shifting/sharing, and aligning with Ouagadougou Partnership targets, the project aims to produce measurable acceleration in the four target countries while contributing to continued progress across West Africa.Apply for 72062418RFA00005
