Opportunity Summary:
The Guatemala Rule of Law and Child Sexual Assault opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number INL RSOIGUATEMALA 05292015) is a U.S. Department of State, Bureau of International Narcotics and Law Enforcement Affairs (INL) request focused on strengthening rule of law efforts in Guatemala with a specific emphasis on responding to child sexual assault. It is listed under the Law, Justice and Legal Services activity area and is tied to CFDA 19.703, Criminal Justice Systems. Rather than a standard competitive grant solicitation, the announcement is explicitly framed as a Request for Statement of Interests, meaning it is intended to identify qualified organizations and concepts and is not presented as a typical head-to-head competition.
The timeline for the opportunity shows it was posted and created on May 29, 2015, with an original and current closing date of July 29, 2015, and an archive date of August 28, 2015. The notice indicates no cost sharing or matching requirement. Award floor and ceiling amounts are both shown as 0, which usually signals that specific funding levels were not published in the summary record and would typically be clarified in the full announcement or during follow-on discussions once strong statements of interest are identified.
Eligibility is oriented toward organizations capable of operating credibly in Guatemala and partnering locally. Eligible applicant types include public and state-controlled institutions of higher education, private institutions of higher education, nonprofits with 501(c)(3) status, and nonprofits without 501(c)(3) status (other than institutions of higher education). The eligibility narrative further emphasizes that applicants should be registered U.S. nonprofit organizations, including 501(c)(3) entities, and can include civil society organizations, foreign NGOs, religious associations, or educational institutions that are based in or working in Guatemala. Applicants must be registered in Guatemala or provide proof that they are seeking registration in Guatemala at the time of proposal submission. Because the effort is community-oriented, organizations based outside Guatemala are required to identify and work with an implementing partner located in Guatemala to build local buy-in and improve the chances of long-term sustainability.
The experience expectations point to practical, on-the-ground capacity in victim services and justice-sector reform, especially in Central America and ideally within the specific communities an applicant proposes to serve. INL highlights a preference for organizations that have already worked with youth, women, and community leaders and that can demonstrate results delivering programs such as youth leadership training, civic education, community outreach, capacity building, media and social responsibility initiatives, or community policing programs. Beyond direct program delivery, applicants are expected to have existing partnerships in Guatemala or a clear ability to develop active partnerships, particularly with groups engaged in victim services or justice-sector reform work. Taken together, these requirements suggest the program is meant to connect community prevention and support services with stronger justice responses, rather than operating as a standalone awareness campaign.
