The Outreach Partnership Program will transition from a one-time grant of USD 5,000 per centre pair to a staged funding model of potentially up to USD 12,500 per pair over a three-year cycle, contingent on demonstrated progress and timely reporting.

The approved funding structure is as follows:

• Level 1 — USD 2,500 (Year 1)
• Level 2 — USD 5,000 (Year 2)
• Level 3 — USD 5,000 (Year 3, awarded upon demonstration of adequate progress)

This expansion has been approved on a trial basis for one centre pair over one full cycle. Progression through each funding level will require satisfactory progress reporting and achievement of stated goals. IPTA will conduct annual program reviews, and future calls for applications will be informed by the outcomes of this trial cycle.
