Opportunity Summary:
The Strategic Trade Control Mentorship for Macedonia grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number ISN ISNECC 16 010) was a U.S. Department of State program administered by the Bureau of International Security and Nonproliferation (DOS-ISN) aimed at helping the Government of Macedonia strengthen how it manages strategic trade control licensing. The core purpose was practical, hands-on mentorship: the selected grantee would work directly with Macedonian government counterparts to improve the day-to-day practices and procedures used to review, approve, and administer licenses related to controlled or sensitive trade. In other words, the project focused on building operational capacity and improving the licensing process itself, rather than broad policy statements or general training without implementation support.
The award was offered as a discretionary Cooperative Agreement, which typically signals that the U.S. government expected to remain actively involved during performance, coordinating closely with the recipient on technical direction, deliverables, and oversight. The funding activity category was listed as "Other" (with additional clarification referenced in the original notice), and the opportunity was associated with CFDA number 19.901, which falls under State Department international security and nonproliferation assistance activities. The program anticipated making a single award, with an award ceiling of $96,000, indicating a targeted, focused engagement rather than a large multi-year assistance package.
Eligibility was limited primarily to U.S.-based nonprofit organizations with 501(c)(3) status (excluding institutions of higher education), with an additional "Others" category noted in the eligibility field that would have been defined in the full announcement text. The grant was posted on June 15, 2016, created the same day, and had a closing date of July 29, 2016 (with no extension reflected in the listing). Overall, the opportunity centered on improving Macedonia's strategic trade control licensing procedures through direct expert mentorship, with one modestly funded cooperative agreement intended to produce concrete improvements in how licensing decisions are processed and managed.
