Opportunity Summary:
The PRM NGO Projects in Thailand funding opportunity is a FY2009 announcement from the U.S. Department of State, Bureau of Population, Refugees and Migration (PRM), seeking proposals from qualified nonprofit organizations to provide continued humanitarian assistance to Burmese refugees living in refugee camps in Thailand. The award mechanism is a cooperative agreement, and the activity focus is refugee assistance under CFDA 19.511 (Overseas Refugee Assistance Programs for East Asia). The opportunity was posted on November 25, 2008, with an application deadline of December 29, 2008, and it was later archived on January 28, 2009. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement listed.
Funding is organized around two main priority tracks tied to specific locations and time periods. The first track targets Ban Mae Nai Soi and Ban Mae Surin Refugee Camps in Mae Hong Son Province, with activities envisioned for the January 1, 2009 through December 31, 2009 period. Under this camp-focused track, PRM emphasizes projects that either improve or maintain access to quality health care services, including training and capacity building for key responders who deliver services; improve overall quality of life by addressing psychosocial needs and supporting income-generating activities, especially skills development and vocational training aimed at greater self-sufficiency and a reasonable livelihood; and strengthen community capacity to respond to the health, psychosocial, safety, and justice needs of survivors of gender-based violence (GBV), with an emphasis on community-level systems that can identify, support, and protect survivors.
The second track focuses specifically on nutritional assistance in a set of camps, with support anticipated for March 1, 2009 through December 31, 2009. The named camps include Ban Mae Nai Soi, Ban Mae Surin, Mae La Oon, and Mae Ra Ma Luang, with the possibility of adding additional camps only if funding permits. Proposals under this nutrition component are expected to do two things at the same time: provide nutritionally complete rations that meet at least 2100 kilocalories per person per day for camp residents, and maintain malnutrition rates at or below existing levels. In practice, this frames nutrition programming as both a supply commitment (adequate daily caloric provision with nutritionally complete rations) and an outcomes commitment (preventing deterioration in malnutrition indicators).
Eligibility is limited to nonprofits with IRS 501(c)(3) status (excluding institutions of higher education). PRM directs applicants to consult the full announcement on Grants.gov for detailed requirements and to use PRM’s general NGO guidelines (also referenced through Grants.gov and available on PRM’s website) for application instructions and compliance expectations. For questions or help accessing the announcement, applicants are instructed to contact the PRM Program Officer listed for this opportunity, Hoa Tran, at 202-663-3104 or TranHT3@state.gov.
