Opportunity Summary:
The FY 2013 Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) from the U.S. Department of State, Bureau of Population, Refugees, and Migration (PRM) offers limited discretionary funding for global projects that strengthen the humanitarian communitys ability to prevent, reduce, and respond effectively to gender based violence (GBV) affecting refugees and conflict affected populations. The focus is on initiatives with broad, field-wide relevance rather than activities confined to one country operation or aimed at building up a single organization. PRM is looking for efforts that can influence how multiple humanitarian actors approach GBV programming, policy, and practice across settings where PRM populations of concern are present.
The FOA prioritizes two main types of proposals. First, it supports capacity building that improves the knowledge, systems, tools, and practical skills of NGOs and implementing partners to prevent and respond to GBV in ways that have worldwide application or clear implications beyond one project site. Second, it supports academically rigorous research, assessments, and external evaluations, whether prospective or retrospective, that can generate evidence to strengthen PRMs approach and/or the broader international communitys GBV prevention and response policies and programs. For research and evaluation-oriented proposals, PRM emphasizes methodological rigor, concrete and actionable policy and program recommendations, a clear link to PRM populations of concern, and a credible dissemination or roll out strategy so findings actually reach and influence relevant humanitarian stakeholders.
A key design expectation is global reach. Applicants are encouraged to work in multiple locations and, when possible, with multiple partners, reflecting the intention to produce lessons, tools, or evidence that are transferable across operations and agencies. This is not a call for direct GBV service delivery confined to a single geographic area. The announcement explicitly notes that proposals centered on GBV prevention and/or response activities in specific locations should be submitted through separate PRM Regional Funding Opportunity Announcements, rather than through this global priorities mechanism. In other words, this FOA is meant to improve the overall capacity and effectiveness of the humanitarian system, not to fund one-off country programs.
Funding is offered through a cooperative agreement under CFDA 19.522 (Overseas Refugee Assistance Programs for Strategic Global Priorities). Award amounts are relatively modest but meaningful for targeted global work: the award floor is $100,000 and the award ceiling is $400,000. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement stated. The opportunity was posted May 6, 2013, with an application deadline of June 5, 2013, and an archive date of July 5, 2013.
Eligible applicants include U.S. and non-U.S. nonprofits (including those with and without 501(c)(3) status) as well as public, state-controlled, and private institutions of higher education. International Organizations such as UN agencies and other public international organizations are handled differently: they are instructed not to apply through Grants.gov for this FOA and instead to contact the relevant PRM Program Officer on or before the closing date if they seek funding aligned with the announcement. For technical issues accessing the full announcement, the listing points applicants to the Grants.gov Contact Center.
Overall, the grant opportunity is best understood as PRMs attempt to invest in system-level improvements for GBV prevention and response in humanitarian contexts. Competitive proposals would typically be those that create widely usable guidance or training approaches, strengthen inter-agency practices, or produce high-quality evidence and evaluations that can shift policy and programming across multiple refugee and conflict settings, paired with a clear plan to share and operationalize results across the humanitarian community.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
What is the purpose of this FY 2013 PRM funding opportunity?
This Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) from the U.S. Department of State, Bureau of Population, Refugees, and Migration (PRM) provides limited discretionary funding for global projects that strengthen the humanitarian community's ability to prevent, reduce, and respond effectively to gender-based violence (GBV) affecting refugees and conflict-affected populations. The intent is to improve system-wide capacity and effectiveness, not to fund isolated, single-site programs.
What kinds of projects is PRM looking to fund under this FOA?
PRM prioritizes two types of proposals: (1) capacity-building initiatives that improve the knowledge, systems, tools, and practical skills of NGOs and implementing partners for GBV prevention and response in ways that have worldwide application or clear relevance beyond one site; and (2) academically rigorous research, assessments, and external evaluations (prospective or retrospective) that generate evidence to strengthen PRM's approach and/or the broader humanitarian community's GBV policies and programs.
What does PRM mean by "global" or "system-level" impact?
The FOA is designed for initiatives with broad, field-wide relevance that can influence how multiple humanitarian actors approach GBV programming, policy, and practice across different settings where PRM populations of concern are present. Applicants are encouraged to work in multiple locations and, when possible, with multiple partners so that tools, lessons, or evidence are transferable across operations and agencies.
Is this FOA intended to fund direct GBV service delivery in one location?
No. This is not a call for direct GBV service delivery confined to a single geographic area. The announcement emphasizes global reach and field-wide applicability rather than activities limited to one country operation or focused on building up a single organization.
If an organization wants to run GBV prevention/response activities in a specific country or camp, where should it apply?
The FOA states that proposals centered on GBV prevention and/or response activities in specific locations should be submitted through separate PRM Regional Funding Opportunity Announcements, rather than through this global priorities mechanism.
What is the expected emphasis for capacity-building proposals?
Capacity-building proposals should focus on improving knowledge, systems, tools, and practical skills that help NGOs and implementing partners prevent and respond to GBV, with applicability beyond a single project site. The underlying expectation is that outputs (such as guidance, tools, or training approaches) can be used by multiple humanitarian actors across settings.
What is the expected emphasis for research, assessment, and evaluation proposals?
PRM emphasizes methodological rigor, concrete and actionable policy and program recommendations, a clear link to PRM populations of concern, and a credible dissemination or roll-out strategy to ensure findings reach and influence relevant humanitarian stakeholders.
What makes a research or evaluation proposal "competitive" according to the FOA summary?
Based on the stated priorities, competitive proposals typically include strong methodological rigor, produce actionable recommendations, demonstrate relevance to refugees and conflict-affected populations of concern to PRM, and include a clear plan to disseminate and operationalize results so they can influence policy and programming across multiple settings and actors.
Does PRM require a dissemination or roll-out plan for findings and tools?
Yes, especially for research and evaluation-oriented proposals. PRM highlights the need for a credible dissemination or roll-out strategy so results actually reach and influence humanitarian stakeholders, rather than remaining internal or unused.
Should projects involve multiple partners or multiple locations?
Applicants are encouraged to work in multiple locations and, when possible, with multiple partners. This reflects PRM's intent to produce transferable lessons, tools, or evidence that can be applied across operations and agencies.
What is the funding mechanism for this opportunity?
Funding is offered through a cooperative agreement under CFDA 19.522 (Overseas Refugee Assistance Programs for Strategic Global Priorities).
What are the minimum and maximum award amounts?
The award floor is $100,000 and the award ceiling is $400,000.
Is there a cost-sharing or matching requirement?
No cost sharing or matching requirement is stated in the provided FOA summary.
Who is eligible to apply?
Eligible applicants include U.S. and non-U.S. nonprofits (including those with and without 501(c)(3) status) as well as public, state-controlled, and private institutions of higher education.
Can institutions of higher education apply?
Yes. Public institutions of higher education, state-controlled institutions of higher education, and private institutions of higher education are listed as eligible applicants.
How are UN agencies or other public international organizations supposed to apply?
International Organizations (such as UN agencies and other public international organizations) are instructed not to apply through Grants.gov for this FOA. Instead, they should contact the relevant PRM Program Officer on or before the closing date if they seek funding aligned with the announcement.
Where was the opportunity posted, and what were the key dates?
The opportunity was posted on May 6, 2013. The application deadline was June 5, 2013. The archive date was July 5, 2013.
What should applicants do if they have technical trouble accessing the full announcement?
For technical issues accessing the full announcement, applicants are directed to the Grants.gov Contact Center.
What populations and contexts are the focus of this FOA?
The FOA focuses on GBV affecting refugees and conflict-affected populations, with an expectation that proposed work links clearly to PRM populations of concern and is relevant across humanitarian settings where these populations are present.
What is the overall intent of PRM's investment through this FOA?
Overall, the FOA is best understood as an effort to invest in system-level improvements for GBV prevention and response in humanitarian contexts by supporting widely usable tools, guidance, training approaches, inter-agency practices, and high-quality evidence and evaluations that can shift policy and programming across multiple refugee and conflict settings.
