Description

Based on funding availability, the Community Engagement Office (CEO), of the Public Diplomacy Section (PDS) of the U.S. Embassy in Islamabad, U.S. Department of State (hereinafter known as “CEO”) is pleased to announce an open competition for assistance awards, through the Public Diplomacy Grants Program. Under this Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO), CEO is seeking proposals to strengthen existing Preventing and Countering Violent Extremism (P/CVE) models and structures by building on the foundations of previous and existing work in the region through capacity building, policy interventions, implementation oversight and reinforcement of learned outcomes. CEO is seeking to partner with an expert organization (international or national) who will operate as ‘Technical Lead’ on programming, design, and evaluation models in partnership with two or more regional or local grass-root CSOs/NGOs and key institutions (government and non-government) as sub-grantees. CEO will fund one proposal through a Cooperative Agreement with innovative approaches and tools to prevent and counter violent extremism that meets the above-mentioned brief. In doing so, proposals may cover interventions including countering narratives, dissemination of alternative narratives, building resilience within communities, and conducting outreach to change social discourse, thereby reducing acceptance of extremist narratives and ideologies. Project programming must focus on Punjab (North, Central, and South) and clearly specify locations where activities will occur and cover up to a minimum of 24 months for period of performance. Proposals have a funding floor of $1,000,000 and a funding ceiling of $1,200,000. Important: Please review below the full Notice of Funding Opportunity for the complete list of requirements.
