Opportunity Summary:

The PRM NGO Projects in Thailand grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number PRM ANE 11 CA EA 11222010 TH) is a discretionary funding announcement from the U.S. Department of State, Bureau of Population, Refugees and Migration (PRM), focused on refugee assistance along the Thai-Burma border. It offers limited funding through a cooperative agreement mechanism to support nongovernmental organizations providing direct services to Burmese refugees living in camps in Thailand. While the notice does not specify an award floor or ceiling, it makes clear that proposals will be considered within a constrained funding environment and should closely align with PRM priorities.

Programmatically, the opportunity centers on two main tracks. The first track supports projects in health, water and sanitation, and gender-based violence (GBV) response, with priority implementation locations named as Site 1, Site 2, Tham Hin, Mae La, Umpiem, and Nu Po camps. Within health, PRM is looking for efforts that improve or maintain access to quality services, emphasizing integrated service delivery across curative and preventive care and explicitly including reproductive health, mental health, and psychosocial care. A key expectation is that projects not only deliver services but also incorporate training and capacity building for key responders, suggesting a strong preference for strengthening frontline systems and staff competencies rather than operating purely as parallel service delivery.

In addition to clinical and public health services, PRM highlights quality-of-life interventions that address psychosocial needs and help refugees move toward greater self-sufficiency. This includes support for income-generating activities and skills development, with a particular emphasis on vocational training that can realistically contribute to livelihoods in the camp context. For water and sanitation, PRM seeks projects that maintain or improve both the quantity and quality of water available to refugees and ensure adequate sanitation coverage, paired with health and hygiene promotion activities. For GBV, the priority is strengthening community capacity to respond comprehensively to survivors needs, spanning health care, psychosocial support, safety planning, and pathways to justice, which implies coordinated community-based prevention and response structures and survivor-centered services.

The second track focuses on nutritional assistance for Burmese refugees in the nine camps, with requirements framed around minimum standards and protective outcomes. Proposals under this track should provide nutritionally complete food rations designed to meet at least 2,100 kilocalories per person per day, ensure that households have enough cooking fuel to meet basic needs, and maintain malnutrition rates at or below current levels. This language points to an interest in both adequacy (caloric and nutritional completeness) and stability (preventing deterioration in nutrition status), as well as the practical enabling condition of cooking fuel, without which food rations may not translate into actual consumption.

Eligibility is limited to two categories of applicants: (1) U.S. nonprofit organizations with 501(c)(3) status (excluding institutions of higher education) and (2) international organizations. The announcement also notes that international organizations already operating relevant programs should make those activities known to PRM by the closing date so PRM can assess the full landscape of IO and NGO programming for funding consideration. The CFDA listing is 19.511, Overseas Refugee Assistance Programs for East Asia, and there is no cost sharing or matching requirement.

Key administrative details include a posted and created date of November 22, 2010, with an original and current closing date of December 22, 2010, and an archive date of January 21, 2011. The activity category is listed as refugee assistance under an "Other" classification. For applicants needing help accessing the full announcement, the listed PRM contact is Hoa Tran, Program Officer (PRM/ANE), at 202-453-9289.
