SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: USAID, in accordance with the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1995 (PRA) (44 U.S.C. 3506(c)(2)(A)), provides the
general public and federal agencies with an opportunity to comment on
the proposed information collection. This proposed information
collection was previously published in the Federal Register (88 FR
89654) on December 28, 2023. This notice allows for an additional 30
days for public comments.
Title of Collection: Collaborating, Learning, and Adapting Case
Competition.
OMB Control Number: XXXXXX.
Type of Review: A new information collection.
Respondents/Affected Public: USAID's partners and USAID staff.
Total Estimated Number of Annual Responses: 85.
Total Estimated Number of Annual Burden Hours: 864.
Abstract: When a partner or USAID staff member decides to
participate in the annual Collaborating, Learning, and Adapting (CLA)
Case Competition, they must download the CLA Case Competition
Submission Form from USAID's Learning Lab website. Through answering
the six question form, they detail the context in which they were
working, the specific manner in which they applied a CLA approach (or
approaches) and describe the result of using that approach. The answers
to these questions, plus a summary and a photo, constitute their
submission to the competition. When they submit their case competition
submission, they must also submit the CLA Case Competition Web
Submission Form. This form captures additional information about the
case, the organization submitting the form, and their experience with
the case competition, as well as point of contact information. The CLA
Case Competition Submission Form is shared with the public through
USAID's Learning Lab website. The information from the CLA Case
Competition Web Submission form is kept in a restricted online file.
USAID and the Office of Management and Budget are particularly
interested in comments that:
1. Evaluate whether the proposed collection of information is
necessary for the proper performance of the functions of the agency,
including whether the information will have practical utility;
2. Evaluate the accuracy of the agency's estimate of the burden of
the proposed collection of information, including the validity of the
methodology and assumptions used;
3. Enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to
be collected; and
4. Minimize the burden of the collection of information on those
who are to respond, including through the use of appropriate automated,
electronic, mechanical, or other technological collection techniques or
other forms of information technology, e.g., permitting electronic
submissions of responses.
