Opportunity Summary:
The Justice Sector Assistance to the Caribbean Basin Security Initiative (CBSI) funding opportunity is a U.S. Department of State Bureau of International Narcotics and Law Enforcement Affairs (INL) request for a single partner to provide fast, flexible, and region-wide justice sector support across participating CBSI countries. The core purpose is to field an implementer that can quickly deploy a mix of short- and medium-term interventions such as technical assistance, tailored trainings, and seminars in one or multiple countries, depending on what justice institutions in the region need at a given time. Rather than supporting one narrow program area, this award is meant to function like an adaptable platform that can respond to a broad range of justice sector gaps and emerging priorities as they arise.
A central feature of the opportunity is close operational coordination with INL. The selected organization is expected to work hand-in-hand with INL’s Western Hemisphere Programs office (INL/WHP) and with INL sections based in CBSI partner countries to spot opportunities, troubleshoot challenges on the ground, and deliver assistance in a timely way. INL encourages applicants to propose an initial strategy that targets specific, pre-identified justice assistance areas already requested by INL country sections, while also explaining how the implementer will continually assess needs and remain ready to design and deliver additional trainings or technical assistance later in the award period. In practical terms, INL is looking for an organization that can manage shifting priorities, mobilize qualified experts, and execute activities across borders without long delays.
The award is structured as a cooperative agreement, which typically means substantial U.S. Government involvement in shaping priorities, coordinating country engagement, and monitoring implementation. The opportunity sits within the Law, Justice and Legal Services activity category and is associated with CFDA 19.703 (Criminal Justice Systems). INL anticipated making one award, with an estimated total funding amount of $4,000,000. The funding range indicates an award floor of $1,000,000 and an award ceiling of $4,000,000, and there is no cost-sharing or matching requirement stated.
Eligibility is geared toward capable nonprofit and higher education institutions with the organizational capacity to operate internationally and deliver specialized justice sector assistance. Eligible applicants include U.S. public and state-controlled institutions of higher education, private institutions of higher education, and nonprofits with 501(c)(3) status (other than institutions of higher education). The eligibility language also allows for a comparable nonprofit organization headquartered outside the United States or an international organization. Applicants that have not yet finalized nonprofit registration may apply if they provide proof they are seeking nonprofit status at the time of submission, but any eventual award would be contingent on meeting the 501(c)(3) requirement (or equivalent, as applicable).
Administratively, the opportunity was posted on May 23, 2013, with a closing date of June 25, 2013, and it was archived on July 25, 2013. The funding opportunity number is INLEA INLCN 13 005, and the official title is Justice Sector Assistance to Caribbean Basin Security Initiative.
