Opportunity Summary:

This FY 2010 Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) comes from the U.S. Department of State, Bureau of Population, Refugees, and Migration (PRM), and it supports global efforts to prevent and respond to gender based violence (GBV) affecting refugees and conflict-affected populations. The emphasis is on improving how the wider humanitarian community addresses GBV, not on building the internal capacity of just one organization or funding stand-alone, single-country service delivery projects. PRM is looking for proposals that strengthen field-wide practice through capacity building, applied research, and assessments that make GBV prevention and response interventions more effective for PRM populations of concern, especially refugees and refugee returnees.

The FOA is structured around PRM's central mandate: providing assistance and protection to refugees, refugee returnees, and other conflict-affected populations that fall under PRM's mission. While the announcement focuses on GBV, it frames GBV work as part of broader refugee assistance and protection outcomes. Applicants are expected to design projects that have cross-cutting value across multiple operations or settings, such as developing tools, training models, technical guidance, coordination approaches, monitoring and evaluation methods, or evidence that can be used by many organizations and implemented in multiple contexts. A key takeaway is that PRM does not want this particular announcement used for proposals that deliver GBV prevention/response services in one specific location; those should instead be submitted under the relevant regional or country-specific PRM funding announcements.

Funding is offered through a cooperative agreement, which typically means PRM expects to have substantial involvement in the funded work (for example, collaboration on technical direction, learning agenda, or deliverables). The opportunity is discretionary and categorized under refugee assistance, tied to CFDA 19.522 (Overseas Refugee Assistance Programs for Strategic Global Priorities). The posted and created date is June 2, 2010, with an application closing date of July 1, 2010, and an archive date of July 31, 2010. Awards under this FOA range from a floor of $50,000 to a ceiling of $300,000, and there is no cost sharing or matching requirement stated.

Eligibility includes two main groups: (1) U.S.-based nonprofit organizations with IRS 501(c)(3) status (excluding institutions of higher education), and (2) international organizations. The FOA also notes that international organizations already engaged in relevant programs should ensure those activities are made known to PRM by the closing date so PRM can consider both NGO and IO programming when making funding decisions. This signals PRM's intent to coordinate across actors and fund work that complements existing efforts rather than duplicating them.

Applicants are directed to read both the full FOA and PRM's general NGO guidelines carefully, and proposals that do not follow the stated requirements will not be considered. The guidelines are hosted on PRM's Funding Opportunities webpage (http://www.state.gov/g/prm/c27111.htm). For access issues or questions, the listed PRM contact is Shanna Devoy, Program Analyst, at 202-453-9349 and devoysk@state.gov. The funding opportunity number is PRM SGP 10 CA 06022010, and the title is "FY 2010 Funding Opportunity Announcement for global programs to prevent and respond to gender based violence (GBV) in refugee and conflict affected populations, including research and assessments to strengthen GBV prevention and response interventions."
