Opportunity Summary:
The Economic Dialogue Activity was a USAID/El Salvador grant opportunity focused on supporting an approximately 12-month program designed to encourage public dialogue on major economic issues in El Salvador, with the explicit goal of reducing political polarization around those issues. Framed as a public dialogue effort, the activity emphasized convening and facilitating discussions that could bridge divides, bring different viewpoints into the same conversation, and help communities and stakeholders engage more constructively on economic topics that tend to generate partisan conflict.
This opportunity was issued as an earmark-funded cooperative agreement, meaning the recipient would be expected to work closely with USAID during implementation rather than operating with full independence. The funding activity category was listed as "Other," clarified as public dialogue on key economic issues in El Salvador. USAID anticipated making one award, with an estimated total funding amount of $245,000 and an award ceiling also set at $245,000, indicating the full program budget was expected to fall at or below that amount.
Cost sharing or matching was required, so applicants needed to contribute additional resources to complement USAID funding. Eligibility was limited to local and regional indigenous organizations, reflecting an intent to place leadership and implementation capacity within indigenous civil society structures rather than external entities. The relevant CFDA listing was 98.001 (USAID Foreign Assistance for Programs Overseas).
The opportunity was posted on June 5, 2008, with a creation date of June 11, 2008. The application window closed on July 7, 2008 (original and current closing dates were the same), and the notice was archived on August 6, 2008. For access issues or questions about the announcement, the listed contact was Marielos Quinonez, Acquisition Specialist at USAID/El Salvador in San Salvador, reachable by phone at (503) 2501-3326.
