Opportunity Summary:

This funding opportunity, titled "Industry Government Outreach U.A.E." (Funding Opportunity Number S-PMECO-10-RFA-03), was issued by the U.S. Department of State through the Bureau of International Security and Nonproliferation, Office of Export Control Cooperation (ISN/ECC). The program is a discretionary grant focused on nonproliferation efforts, specifically by strengthening export control systems and compliance practices in the United Arab Emirates. The core purpose is to fund a project that delivers coordinated industry-government outreach, practical training, and enforcement compliance support to UAE export control authorities and private-sector representatives. In plain terms, the Department of State was seeking an organization that could help government regulators and companies in the UAE work together more effectively to understand and follow export control rules, reduce illicit procurement risks, and improve detection and enforcement related to controlled or sensitive goods and technologies.

The opportunity anticipated making one award, with an estimated total funding amount of $100,000 and an award ceiling of $100,000 (no minimum award amount was specified). There was no cost sharing or matching requirement, meaning applicants did not need to contribute their own funds as a condition of receiving the grant. While the announcement does not list the specific deliverables in this summary text, the stated scope points to activities like organizing workshops or trainings, developing outreach materials, facilitating coordination between regulators and industry, and providing hands-on guidance aimed at improving compliance and enforcement capacity within the UAE export control environment.

Eligibility was broad and included public and state-controlled institutions of higher education, private institutions of higher education, and nonprofit organizations with 501(c)(3) status (other than universities). The listing also notes "Others" and specifically references Public International Organizations as eligible, indicating that certain international or quasi-governmental entities could apply as well. The funding activity category is listed as "Other," with an explanation clarifying the program area as nonproliferation, and the CFDA number is shown as 00.000 (Not Elsewhere Classified), which typically signals a special-purpose listing rather than a standard program code.

Key dates show the opportunity was posted and created on February 2, 2010, with an original and current closing date of March 3, 2010, and an archive date of April 2, 2010.
