Opportunity Summary:
This grant opportunity, titled "Seminar On Strategic Trade Controls for Western Balkan Countries" (Funding Opportunity Number ISN ISNECC 13 011), is a discretionary U.S. government funding announcement administered by the Department of State's Bureau of International Security and Nonproliferation under the Export Control and Related Border Security program (CFDA 19.901). The activity falls within the nonproliferation category and is structured as a cooperative agreement, meaning the selected recipient would be expected to work closely with the U.S. government in planning and carrying out the project rather than operating entirely independently.
The core purpose of the award is to organize and deliver an introductory, fundamentals-level seminar on strategic trade controls in Budva, Montenegro. The seminar is intended to bring together up to 40 government officials drawn from across the Western Balkans, specifically Albania, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Croatia, Kosovo, Macedonia, Montenegro, and Serbia. In practical terms, the funded project would need to support a training-style event that helps participating officials understand the basic principles and building blocks of strategic trade controls, which generally relate to how governments regulate, license, and enforce controls on sensitive goods, technologies, and materials that could contribute to weapons proliferation or other security risks.
Financially, the opportunity anticipates a single award with an estimated total funding amount of $35,000. The award ceiling is also $35,000, with an award floor of $0, and there is no cost-sharing or matching requirement. The posting timeline shows the opportunity was posted on July 24, 2013, with an original closing date of August 2, 2013, later extended to a current closing date of August 13, 2013, and an archive date of September 12, 2013.
Eligibility is open to a range of organizational types, including private and public institutions of higher education, nonprofit organizations with 501(c)(3) status (other than institutions of higher education), and other eligible entities as described in the announcement. The eligibility notes also reference public international organizations. Applicants would be expected to have the capability to convene a regional group of officials, manage logistics for an in-person seminar in Montenegro, and deliver appropriate introductory training content aligned with the strategic trade control and nonproliferation objectives of the Bureau of International Security and Nonproliferation.
