U.S. Embassy Abidjan announces an open competition for organizations to submit applications to carry out a new project designed to bolster the ability of African governments to negotiate effectively with non-traditional official lenders on sovereign debt and commercial transactions.

Projects should be designed to achieve the following U.S. Embassy Policy/Program Objectives: Objective 1: Empower host governments to negotiate effectively with non-traditional official lenders. Objective 2: Enhance African debtor countries’ understanding of debt contracting with non-traditional official lenders.
