Invitation for Bids
Kawsang, as an FHI-360 - CSS Innovation Lab grantee will host the Idea Sprint: a 5-day intensive co-design program. The program uses the design thinking approach—the approach that has been used in a variety of contexts globally in exploring new ideas and fostering collaboration across organizations and disciplines.
Our aim for the Idea Sprint program is to identify specific advocacy and capacity-building challenges in our respective fields of focus, and to encourage testing new approaches and/or tools to address these challenges. Strategic communication and awareness-raising in your respective fields are our primary focus. Selected prototypes and ideas will be eligible for Strategic Communication and Awareness (SCA) grant funding from the FHI 360-CSS -- a USAID funded project.
Why should you participate in the Idea Sprint?
You will gain:
1. LEARNING: You will gain working knowledge and first-hand experience of Human-Centered Design
methodology that is used globally, in corporate, development, governance, and educational contexts to
solve their toughest problems.
2. COLLABORATION: You will interact with a wide network of fellow CSS grantees and participants working
on real problems and challenges. There’s a good chance you will be able to extend these collaborations to
your work after the program.
3. SUPPORT FOR INNOVATIVE SOLUTIONS: A chance to be selected as a grantee of Strategic Communication
and Awareness (SCA) grants (up to $100,000 per grantee team of 5 representatives from different
organisations.)
