Deadline: 27 February 2019
The State Department’s Bureau of Population, Refugees, and Migration (PRM) is currently accepting proposals for its NGO projects Benefiting Refugees in Ethiopia and Kenya.
Proposed activities should primarily support refugees in Ethiopia and Kenya. Because of PRM’s mandate to provide protection, assistance, and sustainable solutions for refugees and victims of conflict, PRM will consider funding only those projects that include a target beneficiary base of at least 50 percent refugees.
Funding Information
- Proposed project start dates: May 1 – September 1, 2019
- Funding Limits: Project proposals must not be less than $800,000 per year and not more than $2,000,000 per year or they will be disqualified.
- Duration of Activity: Project plans for two years will be considered. Applicants should submit multi-year proposals with activities and budgets that do not exceed two years (24 months) from the proposed start date. Actual awards will not exceed one year (12 months) in duration and activities and budgets submitted in year one can be revised/updated each year. Continued funding after the initial 12-month award requires the submission of a noncompeting single year proposal and will be contingent upon available funding, strong performance, and continuing need. In funding a project for one year, PRM makes no representations that it will continue to fund the project in successive years and encourages applicants to seek a wide array of donors to ensure long-term funding possibilities. Please see Multi-Year Funding section below for additional information.
