Diaspora PowerPoint has been uploaded. The U.S. Government, represented by the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) through the Mission in Lebanon, is publishing this Request for Information (RFI) in order to obtain information and input from all interested entities regarding USAID’s engagement with the Lebanese diaspora.

Please do not submit applications, proposals, or resumes as they will be discarded. Proprietary information should not be sent. USAID may use any information provided without incurring any obligation. USAID reserves the right to, or not to, incorporate any, some, or none of the comments received from this RFI into any subsequent solicitations or design documents.

Responders are solely responsible for bearing all expenses associated with preparation and submission of the response to this RFI. It is the potential applicant's responsibility to monitor the site for the release of any further information.
