Opportunity Summary:

The Pre Police Academies Project in Peru is a U.S. government grant opportunity offered by the Department of State's Bureau of International Narcotics and Law Enforcement Affairs (INL), Office of Western Hemisphere (State/INL/WHP). It is designed to support the development and implementation of "pre-police academy" programming in selected coca-growing areas of Peru where anti-drug police academies already operate. In practical terms, the project is meant to strengthen the pipeline of qualified, prepared candidates before they enter formal police academy training, in locations that are directly affected by illicit coca cultivation and related drug-trafficking dynamics. The opportunity falls under law, justice, and legal services, and is tied to counter-narcotics objectives (CFDA 19.704).

Funding is offered as a cooperative agreement, meaning the U.S. government anticipates an active role in guiding or coordinating aspects of implementation rather than simply issuing a hands-off grant. INL expected to make a single award, with a fixed funding level: the award floor and the award ceiling are both listed at $650,000, indicating one project at one set budget amount rather than a range of possible award sizes. There is no cost-sharing or matching requirement stated for applicants, so proposals are not required to bring additional cash or in-kind match to be considered responsive to the funding notice.

Eligibility is focused on organizations that can legally operate in Peru and have the on-the-ground capacity to run programming in targeted coca areas. Eligible applicants include local Peruvian nonprofits (NGOs), educational institutions, and U.S.-based NGOs, but U.S. organizations must propose a joint venture, consortium, or partnership that is based in Peru. Applicants must be registered in Peru or be able to provide proof at the time of proposal submission that they are in the process of seeking registration in-country. The announcement also stresses compliance with local laws, including labor and tax requirements, which signals that INL expects implementers to have a formal operational presence and the administrative systems needed to meet Peruvian legal and regulatory obligations. Public international organizations and commercial firms based in Peru are explicitly excluded from eligibility. The general categories listed as eligible include private and public institutions of higher education, as well as nonprofits with or without U.S. 501(c)(3) status, but the Peru-based registration and partnership requirements effectively narrow the pool to entities with a credible Peruvian footprint.

Timing details indicate this was a 2014 competition. It was posted on February 28, 2014, with an original closing date of March 28, 2014, later updated to April 1, 2014. The opportunity was archived on April 27, 2014, which typically means the submission window has closed and the agency moved into review, selection, and award processes.
