Opportunity Summary:
The Global Transitional Justice Initiative is a discretionary U.S. government grant opportunity administered by the Department of State's Bureau of Democracy, Human Rights and Labor (DRL). Through this competition, DRL sought proposals from organizations that could lay out strong program concepts and demonstrate the practical capacity to design and manage projects connected to transitional justice work at the global level. In plain terms, the opportunity was aimed at groups that could support efforts typically associated with countries dealing with past large-scale human rights abuses or periods of conflict or authoritarian rule, with an emphasis on initiatives that promote accountability, truth-seeking, redress for victims, institutional reform, and broader rule-of-law and human rights goals.
The funding instrument for this opportunity was a cooperative agreement, which generally signals a more engaged partnership model than a standard grant. While the specifics of the anticipated collaboration were not included in the summary data, cooperative agreements commonly involve substantial involvement by the funding agency in key aspects of the project, such as refining activities, coordinating with other stakeholders, or aligning outputs with broader policy objectives. The award size for this announcement was set at a single, fixed amount: an award floor of $750,000 and an award ceiling of $750,000, indicating DRL anticipated making an award at exactly that level rather than across a wide funding range. Cost sharing or matching was not required, meaning applicants did not need to commit their own funds as a condition of eligibility.
A wide range of applicant types were eligible to apply. Eligible applicants included nonprofit organizations with 501(c)(3) status, nonprofits without 501(c)(3) status (excluding institutions of higher education in that category), public and state-controlled institutions of higher education, private institutions of higher education, small businesses, and for-profit entities other than small businesses. The opportunity was listed under CFDA number 19.345, International Programs to Support Democracy, Human Rights and Labor, which is the standard federal assistance listing used for many DRL democracy and human rights programs.
Key dates reflect that this was a time-limited, archived opportunity from 2014. The notice was posted on March 6, 2014, with a creation date of March 13, 2014. The original closing date was April 18, 2014, later extended to April 25, 2014, and the opportunity was archived on May 25, 2014. The funding opportunity number associated with this solicitation was DRLA DRLAQM 13 085, and the official title was Global Transitional Justice Initiative.
