Opportunity Information: Apply for SFOP0010257
The U.S. Department of State's Bureau of Democracy, Human Rights, and Labor (DRL) is offering a discretionary grant opportunity called "DRL FY23 Citizens Engage on New GBV Law in Uzbekistan" (Funding Opportunity Number SFOP0010257). The focus of the competition is to support projects in Uzbekistan that combat gender-based violence (GBV), with an emphasis suggested by the title on helping citizens engage around a newer GBV-related law. In practical terms, this points to programs that strengthen public awareness, civic participation, and implementation support connected to legal protections and responses to GBV, though applicants would still need to design activities that clearly align with DRL's democracy and human rights mission and demonstrate how their approach will reduce GBV or improve protection and accountability.
The opportunity is administered by DRL under CFDA number 19.345, and it uses a grant as the funding instrument. The maximum possible award amount listed is $900,000 (the award ceiling). The opportunity was created on March 7, 2024, and the original application deadline is May 6, 2024. The posting lists "ExpectedAwards: 0," which often indicates that the precise number of awards is not specified in the summary data and may depend on available funds, the quality of applications, or programmatic decisions made during the review process.
Eligibility is broad. DRL invites applications from U.S.-based and foreign-based nonprofit organizations and NGOs, as well as public international organizations. It also allows applications from private institutions, public or state institutions of higher education, and even for-profit organizations or businesses. Even though for-profits are eligible, DRL notes a preference for working with nonprofit entities, while leaving room for situations where a for-profit organization might be the best fit to deliver the proposed work. Overall, this is a competitive funding opportunity aimed at supporting Uzbekistan-focused initiatives that address gender-based violence through citizen engagement and related programming tied to the country's evolving legal framework.Apply for SFOP0010257
