How to come up with Fundable Ideas or Designs of a Proposed Project? – Proposal for USAID’s Saving Lives at Birth

2. The USAID funded two rounds of the year 2011 and 2012 in the past, which includes mainly two types of projects: science and technology, or service and community. Among those funded projects, most of them were about science and technology, but only a smaller part of them was about community and society (6 out of 24 in Round One, and 2 out of 15 in Round Two), which means that those proposals about services and community will have better chances to be funded, and this is what will be discussed in this guide.

The following service and community projects have been funded in the Round 1 and Round 2 by the USAID, additional information is available here http://savinglivesatbirth.net/innovatorshome, when you go into each round by clicking on the Round icon, and then move the mouse arrow on the pick title of each project, you will be able to see the descriptions in details.
