Dear PAEPARD Community,

The USAID/Bureau for Humanitarian Assistance (BHA)-funded SCALE Award wants to highlight actions that are being taken by partner organizations at the local level. Has your or a partner's program made an innovation in how you work? Tell SCALE about your creative adaptation through this year's Creative Adaptation Awar<https://www.fsnnetwork.org/grant/scale-creative-adaptation-award>d<https://www.fsnnetwork.org/grant/scale-creative-adaptation-award>.

In the last few years, the effects of accelerating climate events, the global pandemic, and the push for racial justice have disrupted the status quo and forced important changes in the way we all work. One valuable effect of these changes has been increasing attention on the power of partner organizations at the local level to drive program design, innovation, and implementation. SCALE is seeking examples of creative program innovations and adaptations they have spearheaded that address challenges in the sectors of agriculture, natural resource management (NRM), and/or off- and non-farm livelihoods. I'm sure many of your organizations have great things to showcase!

The winners of the Creative Adaptation Award will be featured in a Spotlight Webinar in mid-September and highlighted in the FSN newsletter. Submissions will be accepted until 11:59 PM ET on Friday, August 19th, 2022. The application is available in English, French, Spanish, Arabic, and Swahili.
