Opportunity Information: Apply for SFOP0006130
This funding opportunity, titled 19.PMWRA.Afghanistan.Project 31.NOFO (Funding Opportunity Number SFOP0006130), is a discretionary grant offered by the U.S. Department of State through the Bureau of Political-Military Affairs, Office of Weapons Removal and Abatement (PM/WRA). It was created on August 20, 2019, with an original application deadline of October 19, 2019, and it falls under CFDA 19.800. The program is focused on Afghanistan and is intended to support humanitarian efforts that reduce harm from landmines and explosive remnants of war.
The core purpose of the grant is to fund work in three closely related areas: humanitarian demining, explosive ordnance disposal (EOD), and victim assistance. In practical terms, this can include surveying and clearing land contaminated by mines or unexploded ordnance, safely removing or destroying explosive hazards, and supporting people and communities affected by these weapons. The overall aim is to improve civilian safety, restore access to land and infrastructure, and address the human consequences of explosive contamination, whether through direct assistance to survivors, rehabilitation support, or other victim-centered services as defined by the program.
Eligibility is limited to nonprofit organizations that have 501(c)(3) status with the IRS and are not institutions of higher education. PM/WRA anticipated making one award under this notice. The maximum award amount (the ceiling) was set at up to $2,733,406, meaning applicants were expected to propose a project scope and budget that fit within that upper limit. The funding instrument is a grant, and while the activity category is listed as "Other," the description makes clear the work is specialized humanitarian mine action and related assistance programming.
Applicants were expected to follow the specific goals, objectives, and technical requirements laid out in the full notice, which typically means proposing an evidence-based approach to clearance and/or assistance, demonstrating technical capacity and experience operating safely in high-risk environments, and presenting a clear plan for implementation, coordination, monitoring, and reporting. In essence, this opportunity was designed to fund a single capable nonprofit to deliver mine action and/or victim assistance in Afghanistan during FY 2019, with the resources to make a measurable impact on reducing explosive hazards and supporting affected populations.Apply for SFOP0006130
