Opportunity Information: Apply for SFOP0008416
The U.S. Department of State, Bureau of Democracy, Human Rights and Labor (DRL) announced a discretionary grant funding opportunity titled "DRL Strengthening Fundamental Freedoms and the Rule of Law in Bahrain." This opportunity was published as an open competition for organizations to propose projects that advance DRL's overarching objective of supporting and upholding fundamental freedoms and strengthening the rule of law in Bahrain. The program focus, as stated in the notice, centers on efforts that reinforce basic rights and legal protections, which commonly includes work connected to civil liberties, accountable governance, fair legal processes, and related human rights and rule-of-law safeguards.
The opportunity is identified by Funding Opportunity Number SFOP0008416 and is administered by the Department of State's DRL bureau. It uses a grant as the funding instrument, and it is categorized under a general "Other" funding activity classification, with additional clarification referenced in the full notice text. The assistance listing (CFDA) number associated with the program is 19.345, which corresponds to State Department DRL assistance programs.
In terms of timing, the opportunity was created on December 17, 2021, with an original application closing date of February 18, 2022. The notice lists an award ceiling of $987,654, meaning individual awards could be funded up to that maximum amount, depending on the final award structure and the scope of proposed activities. The posting lists "Expected Awards: 0," which typically indicates that the agency did not specify an exact anticipated number of awards in the public summary, rather than confirming that no awards would be made.
Eligibility is broadly framed as "Others," with the expectation that the detailed eligibility rules and any restrictions would be provided in the full announcement. In practice for DRL competitions, eligible applicants often include certain nonprofit organizations, nongovernmental organizations, civil society groups, and sometimes educational institutions or other qualified entities, but the precise eligible categories and any limitations would be defined in the complete funding opportunity document.
Overall, the grant opportunity is intended to solicit project proposals that contribute to strengthening fundamental freedoms and rule-of-law conditions in Bahrain, funded through a DRL-administered grant competition under the Department of State.Apply for SFOP0008416
