Opportunity Information: Apply for SFOP0006802
The U.S. Department of State's Bureau of Democracy, Human Rights and Labor (DRL) released a discretionary grant opportunity titled "DRL FY19: Cuba Proposals" (Funding Opportunity Number SFOP0006802). The program invites full proposals from organizations that can demonstrate a strong track record and credible capacity to run foreign assistance programs focused on protecting and advancing internationally recognized human rights in Cuba. In practical terms, DRL is seeking implementers that can plan, manage, and deliver human rights-related activities effectively, including handling the operational, financial, and reporting responsibilities that come with U.S. government assistance awards.
This opportunity is structured as a grant, categorized under "Other" for the funding activity area, and is associated with CFDA number 19.345. It was posted on April 14, 2020, with an original application deadline of June 1, 2020. DRL anticipated making one award under this announcement, with a maximum award amount (ceiling) of up to $2,000,000. The single-award structure and relatively high ceiling suggest DRL was looking for a lead organization capable of executing a sizeable, cohesive program rather than multiple smaller, fragmented projects.
Eligibility is listed as "Others," with additional details referenced in the full announcement rather than fully spelled out in the summary fields provided. As written, the call is aimed at organizations with proven implementation capacity, which commonly includes experienced non-profit organizations, NGOs, or similar entities that have administered comparable international human rights programming and can operate in challenging environments. The central purpose is clear and narrow: support activities that promote and safeguard human rights in Cuba, consistent with internationally recognized standards, through a U.S. foreign assistance program managed by DRL.Apply for SFOP0006802
