Opportunity Information: Apply for SFOP0003609

The U.S. Department of State, Bureau of Democracy, Human Rights and Labor (DRL) announced a discretionary grant competition called "DRL Supporting Justice and Accountability Efforts in Tunisia" (Funding Opportunity Number SFOP0003609; CFDA 19.345). The program is designed to fund projects that strengthen Tunisian-led justice and accountability work, with an emphasis on advancing the countrys transitional justice process. DRLs stated intent is to support progress on transitional justice in partnership with both government institutions and civil society actors, reinforcing existing national commitments found in Tunisians constitution and the Organic Law on Establishing and Organizing Transitional Justice.

The opportunity notice also explains an administrative update: the posting was temporarily withdrawn so DRL could add an application kit to the SAMS Domestic portal under "Additional Documents to be submitted." That kit clarifies which documents are mandatory versus optional during the upload and submission process. Because of that temporary withdrawal and reposting, applicants may have seen what looks like a duplicate announcement on grants.gov. DRL emphasized that applicants should submit ahead of the deadline time (before 5:00 pm U.S. East Coast time) and indicated that submissions could be made through SAMS Domestic (https://mygrant.service-now.com) or through grants.gov using the related funding opportunity number DRLA-DRLAQM-18-022.

In terms of what DRL is seeking to fund, the notice highlights several eligible program approaches. One priority is capacity building for the institutions that carry transitional justice forward, both on the government side and the non-government side, so they can implement transitional justice processes effectively and work collaboratively. This includes helping relevant actors meet commitments already laid out in national legal and constitutional frameworks, including the Organic Law governing transitional justice. Another focus is practical planning and follow-through: supporting key stakeholders to develop an action plan to implement existing transitional justice commitments and recommendations, including those referenced in Part 8 of the Organic Law on Establishing Transitional Justice. The opportunity also underscores a role for civil society, particularly supporting Tunisian civil society organizations to advocate for implementation, increase public awareness and understanding of the transitional justice process, and sustain momentum for continued advancement. A further theme is improving collaboration between government and civil society on transitional justice measures, including initiatives connected to preservation of memory and to improving representation and services for victims.

The grant instrument type is a grant, and the opportunity lists an award ceiling of up to $1,000,000. The posting lists "ExpectedAwards: 0," which typically signals that the agency is not committing in the notice to a specific number of awards. The opportunity was created January 10, 2018, with an original closing date of January 22, 2018. Eligibility is described broadly as "Others" with additional eligibility details referenced in the full opportunity materials.
