Opportunity Summary:
The grant opportunity titled "Supporting Security and Justice Sector Reforms in Tunisia" was a U.S. Department of State program administered by the Bureau of Democracy, Human Rights and Labor (DRL). It was issued as a discretionary grant competition focused on democracy, human rights, and rule-of-law objectives in Tunisia, specifically tied to improving or strengthening reforms in the security sector and the justice sector. The funding activity is categorized under "Other" with a clarification that the purpose aligns with promoting human rights and democracy in Tunisia, and it is linked to CFDA 19.345, which covers international programs that support democracy, human rights, and labor.
The opportunity was posted on February 11, 2015, with the application closing date set for March 20, 2015. It was later archived on April 19, 2015, indicating the competition period had ended. Awards under this announcement were expected to fall within a defined funding range: the minimum (award floor) was $350,000 and the maximum (award ceiling) was $750,000. The announcement also states that there was no cost-sharing or matching requirement, meaning applicants were not required to contribute their own funds as a condition of eligibility or competitiveness, although applicants sometimes still propose leveraged resources as a program strength depending on the agency norms.
Eligible applicants included a broad set of organizations commonly able to manage international democracy and governance programming. This included public and state-controlled institutions of higher education, private institutions of higher education, U.S.-based nonprofits with 501(c)(3) status, and nonprofits without 501(c)(3) status (as long as they were not institutions of higher education in that category). In practical terms, that eligibility language typically covers universities, research institutes, policy centers, legal aid and human rights NGOs, and other nonprofit implementers that can design and deliver programming related to institutional reform, training, accountability mechanisms, and rights-respecting practices in policing, corrections, courts, prosecution, defense, or oversight bodies.
The public listing notes that the detailed program description was provided in an attachment rather than in the short synopsis text.
