Opportunity Summary:
The U.S. Department of State's Bureau of International Narcotics and Law Enforcement Affairs (INL) released this discretionary grant opportunity to fund an early-2011 assessment of Iraq's criminal justice sector. The purpose is to examine how well the three core components of the system police, judiciary, and corrections are functioning, both individually and as an interconnected whole. INL frames the assessment as part of a broader post-2003 U.S. effort to help rebuild and strengthen Iraqi rule-of-law institutions in a way that promotes security and stability, supports democratic governance and economic development, and builds public trust so that Iraqis rely on formal justice institutions rather than militias or criminal groups to resolve disputes and seek protection.
The grant is intended to support an organization that can design and manage a project aligned with the "Target Theme" described in the solicitation's Appendix 1, with applicants expected to request funding close to the anticipated amount associated with that theme. INL indicates it plans to make a single award, with total available funding up to USD 3,000,000. The award floor is USD 1,000,000 and the ceiling is USD 3,000,000. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement. INL also makes clear that it will not fund proposals that are essentially for products or services that could be purchased via a standard procurement contract, and that there is no guarantee of follow-on or additional funding. Any extension or increase would be solely at INL's discretion.
Eligibility is limited to certain institutional applicants: public and state-controlled institutions of higher education, private institutions of higher education, and nonprofit organizations with IRS 501(c)(3) status (other than institutions of higher education). The funding instrument is a grant, and the activity category is listed as Law, Justice and Legal Services. The opportunity is labeled "Not Elsewhere Classified" under CFDA.
Applications must be submitted electronically through Grants.gov, and applicants must be registered in Grants.gov before they can apply. The notice emphasizes that registration can take significant time and urges organizations to begin well ahead of the deadline, noting that no exceptions will be made for applications not successfully posted by the due date. The opportunity was posted December 20, 2010, with a closing date of January 20, 2011 (and an archive date of February 19, 2011). Questions about the solicitation had to be submitted to the listed points of contact no later than 5:00 pm on January 14, 2011, and INL stated it would post questions and answers as an attachment to the RFA on a daily basis.
