Opportunity Summary:
The Tajikistan Stability Enhancement Program (TSEP) is a USAID grant opportunity aimed at supporting stability-focused regional development efforts in Tajikistan. Issued by USAID’s Central Asian Republics platform (listed under USAID Almaty, Kazakhstan), the program is offered through a Request for Applications (RFA) under the legal authority of the Foreign Assistance Act of 1961, as amended. The opportunity is structured to attract qualified organizations capable of designing and implementing a multi-year activity intended to strengthen stability outcomes, with USAID expecting to make a single award to one implementing partner.
Funding is planned as one Cooperative Agreement, which means the awardee should expect substantial involvement from USAID during implementation compared to a standard grant. The total anticipated USAID funding is up to $7.1 million over a three-year period, contingent on the availability of funds. The notice sets the award ceiling and the award floor at $7,100,000, signaling that USAID anticipated a single, full-sized award at that level rather than a range of potential award amounts. A cost-sharing or matching requirement applies, so applicants would need to contribute a portion of resources (cash and/or in-kind, depending on the RFA’s detailed terms) alongside USAID funds.
Eligibility is broadly open (unrestricted) to qualified entities, with an important practical condition: both U.S. and non-U.S. organizations are eligible as long as they are currently registered in Tajikistan. That structure suggests USAID wanted to ensure the implementer has an established legal presence and the ability to operate in-country in compliance with local requirements. USAID also explicitly notes it may fund any application or none at all, which is a standard government caveat indicating that submission does not guarantee an award.
Key administrative details include the Funding Opportunity Number DCM119 09 007 and the title “Tajikistan Stability Enhancement Program (TSEP) in Tajikistan.” The opportunity category is discretionary, and the activity category is listed as Regional Development. USAID expected one award. The opportunity was originally posted January 28, 2009, with an original closing date of February 27, 2009, and a later updated closing date of August 24, 2009, indicating the application window was extended or re-opened. For applicants who could not access the full announcement electronically, the listed point of contact was Elvira Kassimova, Acquisition Specialist (Phone: 500041, Email: ekassimova@usaid.gov).
