U.S.-based and foreign non-profit and non-governmental organizations (NGO), public international organizations (PIO), and institutions of higher education are encouraged to apply by submitting a Statement of Interest.
Pending fiscal year 2012 appropriations, the Office anticipates awarding grants of up to $750,000 per project.
All SOIs must be submitted via www.grantsolutions.gov OR www.grants.gov by 5:00 p.m.
