Opportunity Summary:
The Haiti Criminal Law Training Programs grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number INL 12 CA 0008 HAITI 12302011) is a U.S. Department of State Bureau of International Narcotics and Law Enforcement Affairs (INL) discretionary funding competition to support one organization in delivering a criminal law training program in Haiti through a cooperative agreement. The core purpose is practical, up-to-date instruction on Haitian criminal law for people working across the justice sector, with an explicit emphasis on improving understanding of what constitutes illegal detention under both Haitis current legal framework and proposed laws and procedures. In other words, the program is meant to strengthen day-to-day legal knowledge and decision-making that affects arrests, custody, case processing, and detention practices, and to reduce unlawful detention by ensuring justice actors share a clear, consistent interpretation of the law and relevant procedural requirements.
The opportunity anticipates a single award with total estimated funding of $1,000,000. The award amount is expected to fall between an award floor of $700,000 and an award ceiling of $1,000,000. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement, which means applicants are not required to contribute their own funds as a condition of eligibility or award. The activity category is Law, Justice and Legal Services, and the CFDA listing is 19.703 (Criminal Justice Systems), which places the program within INLs broader portfolio of justice sector capacity building and rule of law support.
Eligibility is focused on organizations that can operate credibly inside Haiti. Applicants must be a registered non-profit organization or an educational institution based in Haiti. They must be registered in-country, or they must provide proof at the time of proposal submission that they are actively seeking registration in Haiti. The broader eligible applicant types listed include U.S.-recognized 501(c)(3) nonprofits (excluding institutions of higher education), public and state-controlled institutions of higher education, private institutions of higher education, and other entities as clarified in the programs additional eligibility information. Taken together, the listing signals that INL is open to a range of capable implementers, but it draws a clear line around local presence and legal registration status in Haiti to ensure implementers can realistically coordinate with Haitian institutions and deliver training on the ground.
Key dates show the opportunity was posted on December 30, 2011, with an application deadline (original and current closing date) of January 30, 2012, and an archive date of February 29, 2012. The funding instrument is a cooperative agreement, which typically indicates INL expects active involvement during implementation, such as collaboration on work planning, performance monitoring, and coordination with Haitian counterparts. While the announcement summary does not list specific training formats, the stated objective suggests a program that would likely include structured curricula, workshops or seminars, scenario-based learning tied to Haitian criminal procedure, and targeted modules addressing detention standards, legal thresholds, and procedural safeguards so that judges, prosecutors, police, corrections personnel, and related justice stakeholders can identify and prevent unlawful detention practices.
