Opportunity Summary:
The grant opportunity titled "Improving Court Administration in Tunisia" was issued by the U.S. Department of State's Bureau of International Narcotics and Law Enforcement Affairs (INL) to support a comprehensive program focused on modernizing and strengthening how courts in Tunisia are managed. The core aim is to design and implement nationally consistent court administration policies and procedures so that courts operate more effectively and predictably across the country. In practical terms, the program is meant to improve day-to-day court management, strengthen administrative systems, and encourage better coordination between judicial leadership (judges) and court administrative staff. A major emphasis is placed on identifying and testing ways to increase efficiency for both judges and court employees, which can include improving workflows, clarifying roles and responsibilities, and standardizing processes that may currently vary by courthouse or region.
This opportunity was offered as a discretionary award using a cooperative agreement, meaning the funding agency typically expects to remain actively involved in the program's implementation rather than simply providing funds and stepping back. The funding is tied to the Criminal Justice Systems assistance listing (CFDA 19.703) under the broader category of Law, Justice, and Legal Services. The maximum anticipated award amount (award ceiling) was set at USD 1,500,000, with no stated minimum (award floor of USD 0). There was no cost-sharing or matching requirement, so applicants were not required to contribute their own funds as a condition of eligibility.
Eligible applicants were limited to nonprofit organizations, including both nonprofits with IRS 501(c)(3) status (excluding institutions of higher education) and nonprofits without 501(c)(3) status (also excluding institutions of higher education). The announcement was posted and created on March 4, 2015, with an application deadline of May 3, 2015. The opportunity was later archived on June 2, 2015, indicating it is no longer accepting applications.
For applicants or interested parties who had trouble accessing the full announcement electronically, the listed point of contact was Meagan Jones, Program Officer, reachable by phone at 202-634-1196. The official funding opportunity number for reference was INL 15CA0015 AMETUNISIA 03022015.
