Submit your adaptive management story today to be featured on the FSN Network website and participate in an upcoming learning event!

IDEAL invites development and emergency implementing partners to submit their adaptive management stories to help the food security community learn how USAID’s Bureau for Humanitarian Assistance (BHA) partners are using adaptive management approaches in their work. Adaptive management stories should focus on activities that took place during 2020. 

All eligible stories will be featured in a new case study collection on the FSN Network website and shared with the broader food security community. A selection of stories will also be showcased during an upcoming adaptive management learning event organized by IDEAL.

Eligibility
The call for stories is open to all individuals and all types of organizations (charitable organizations, private companies, or public entities) that are associated with USAID/BHA in some way. The specific activity doesn't necessarily have to be funded by USAID/BHA. However, USAID/BHA must somehow be connected to the work, such as through collaboration or a partnership or through an implementing partner improving their own internal adaptive management-related work.
