A grant for up to $395,000.00 U.S. Dollars (USD) in FY 2020 Economic Support Funds (ESF) will be awarded (pending availability of funds) for work that will support activities to promote children’s rights. The period of performance is 24 months. Funding authority rests in the Foreign Assistance Act of 1961, as amended. The U.S. Embassy Kinshasa of the U.S. Department of State announces a Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) for a program to raise awareness of children’s rights among the local population, improve the capacity of local human rights defenders and service providers to assist child victims, and increase accountability of authorities in Haut-Katanga in their responsibility to protect children. The project activities to promote human rights of vulnerable children in Haut-Katanga will: (1) conduct a “listening session” to learn more about the challenges children in Haut-Katanga face; (2) support local health and social service providers to better assist child victims of human rights abuses; (3) conduct brief surveys, both a baseline and end of project survey, to track increase in local knowledge of and attitudes towards children’s rights and how to protect them; (4) train local organizations to build the capacity of human rights defenders to support children and advocate for children’s rights; and (5) conduct a local education campaign on radio and other appropriate platforms. The project may also include the following suggested activities: (6) creation and distribution of educational materials specific to children’s rights context in Haut-Katanga to local service providers, educators, and other appropriate community figures; and (7) facilitation of dialogue between human rights defenders and local officials Objective 1: To strengthen the local human rights framework by building the capacity of local children’s rights advocates, government officials, and service providers. Objective 2: To support local human rights defenders in advocating for youth. Frequently Asked Questions: Question: In following the directions of the notification of funding opportunity, I would like to verify if an organization that is only registered in the DRC is eligible to apply. According to the directions: U.S. NGOs with 501(c)(3) status, and overseas-based non-profit/non-governmental organizations are eligible. Does this mean we would have to be a registered organization in both the United States and in the DRC? Or is this grant also open to a non-profit/non-governmental organization that is only registered in the DRC? Answer: Yes, nonprofits only registered in the DRC are allowed to apply. You do not need to be registered in both the US and the DRC. Thank you for your question!

This funding opportunity seeks to engage local educational organizations to design and implement the English Access Microscholarship Program (Access) in regions across southern Kazakhstan (for the detailed location please refer to the “project audiences” section). Through after-school classes and intensive sessions, the program will create opportunities for talented 13-15 year-olds from economically disadvantaged sectors to learn English during a two-year project. The program also gives participants the opportunity to gain an appreciation for U.S. culture and values. It is intended to increase their ability to participate successfully in the socio-economic development of their country and improve their chances of participating in educational and exchange programs in the United States. Project Audiences: Female and male 13-15 year old students (50/50 ratio per group), from Talgar, Taraz, Sayram standard secondary schools.

Selected participants must be bright, economically disadvantaged students with beginning level of English. Participants should commit to enroll in classes during the full two-year program. Students will graduate with certificates of completion from the U.S. Consulate General in Kazakhstan at the end of their two-year program. Project goal: Promote the socio-economic development of Kazakhstan through increasing the English language and critical thinking skills of economically disadvantaged Kazakh youth from rural and suburban secondary schools. Project Objectives: Objective 1: Increase English language proficiency of 90-110 beginner-level to intermediate, over a two-year period through interactive learning and real-life contextual practice strategies. Objective 2: Increase awareness and understanding of key issues facing the target audiences’ respective communities and ways they can positively contribute to addressing those challenges. Objective 3: Increasing understanding of US culture/values and critical thinking skills.
