    Under the Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA), (44 U.S.C. 3501-3520) 
Federal Agencies must obtain approval from the Office of Management and 
Budget (OMB) for each collection of information they conduct or 
sponsor. ``Collection of information'' is defined in 44 U.S.C. 3502(3) 
and 5 CFR 1320.3(c) and includes Agency requests or requirements that 
members of the public submit reports, keep records, or provide 
information to a third party for the Agency. Section 3506(c)(2)(A) of 
the PRA requires Federal Agencies to provide a 60-day notice in the 
Federal Register concerning each proposed collection of information, 
including each proposed extension of an existing collection of 
information, before submitting the collection to OMB for approval. To 
comply with this requirement, USAID is publishing notice of the 
proposed collection of information set forth in this document.
    The 60-day notice was published November 15, 2024 at 89 FR 90260.

Knowledge & Insights Team Lead, USAID Innovation, Technology, and
