Opportunity Summary:
The Republic of South Sudan Diplomatic Training grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number 1900 LMAQM 11 GR 044 USSES 072611) was a U.S. Department of State discretionary funding announcement to support diplomatic training activities in South Sudan. The award instrument was a cooperative agreement, which usually means the Department of State expected to remain actively involved during implementation rather than simply issuing funds and stepping back. The funding activity category was listed as "Other," with a specific clarification that the work centered on diplomatic training in South Sudan. The opportunity was administered through the Department of State, Office of Acquisitions Management, and fell under CFDA 19.700 (General Department of State Assistance).
In terms of scale and competitiveness, the program anticipated making one award, with an estimated total funding amount of $1,000,000. The posting date was July 26, 2011, and the record shows the opportunity was created July 27, 2011. The original application deadline was August 23, 2011, but the current closing date was moved earlier to August 14, 2011. The opportunity was later archived on September 22, 2011, indicating it is no longer open and is primarily relevant now for historical or reference purposes.
Eligibility was relatively specific. Applicants could include educational institutions, nonprofit organizations, and commercial organizations, but commercial entities had to be willing to waive profit to be eligible. A key restriction was that direct funding to non-U.S. entities was not available under this announcement, meaning organizations based outside the United States could not receive funds directly. While the listing used a broad label of "Others" for eligible applicants, the detailed eligibility language narrowed it to those categories and conditions.
Cost sharing or matching was not required. The announcement explicitly stated there was no cost-sharing requirement and that cost sharing would not be used as an evaluation component for proposals, so applicants were not supposed to be scored or advantaged simply for offering matching funds. At the same time, the Department of State encouraged organizations to identify cost sharing in their activities, which is a common way agencies signal that leveraging outside resources is welcome even if it is not mandatory or formally scored.
For applicants needing help accessing the full announcement, the point of contact listed was Crystal Faggart, Program Officer, at phone number 202-647-6479.
