Global Chemical Security Effectiveness Study
The Department of State’s Bureau of International Security and Nonproliferation (ISN) Office of Cooperative Threat Reduction (CTR) is pleased to announce an open competition for assessing the effectiveness of ISN/CTR's Chemical Security Program (CSP) through this
Request for Proposals (RFP).
ISN/CTR invites non-profit/non-governmental organizations and educational institutions to submit proposals that will assess the effectiveness of CSP engagements with three partner countries.
CSP seeks to reduce global chemical threats by preventing unauthorized access to weaponizable chemicals, weapons-applicable expertise, and/or related infrastructure.
This assessment will focus on CSP's work in three countries including activities designed to engage key academic, industry, and government stakeholders.
The three countries that are part of this examination represent advanced, intermediate, and introductory CSP partners, and this survey will be contacted remotely (email, phone, video teleconferencing, via local survey firms, etc), rather than through in-country visits.
This analysis will provide program managers with solid empirical basis to assess CSP's effectiveness.
ISN/CTR has up to $215,000 available to award one cooperative agreement in this field.
While not a decisive factor, to ensure an unbiased assessment of its programming, ISN/CTR prefers proposals submitted by individuals or organizations which are not currently involved in implementing nonproliferation engagement activities on behalf of ISN/CTR.

Keeping Half the Profits Beats Non-profits for Social Impact
Melbourne social enterprise Who Gives A Crap sold nearly 3 million rolls of toilet paper in 2014/15 and gave half the proceeds to WaterAid Australia, but co-founder Simon Griffiths says the donation would have been less had the startup adopted a non-profit model when it launched two years ago.
