Opportunity Information: Apply for SFOP0010156
The U.S. Department of State's Bureau of Democracy, Human Rights and Labor (DRL) is offering a discretionary grant opportunity titled "DRL Promoting Free Expression in Angola" (Funding Opportunity Number SFOP0010156). The purpose of this competition is to fund a project that strengthens and supports free expression in Angola, aligning with DRL's democracy, human rights, and fundamental freedoms priorities. The opportunity is structured as a grant under CFDA/Assistance Listing 19.345 and is categorized under the broad funding activity area of "Other," which signals a flexible programmatic scope as long as the work clearly advances free expression outcomes.
This competition is open to a wide range of applicant types. Eligible applicants include U.S.-based and foreign-based non-profit organizations and NGOs, public international organizations, and private, public, or state institutions of higher education. For-profit organizations and businesses may also apply. Even though DRL states a preference for working with non-profit entities, it explicitly leaves room for a for-profit applicant to be selected when that type of organization is genuinely the best fit for the proposed work. In practice, this means applicants should focus less on organizational label and more on demonstrating credible experience, strong local or regional partnerships, sound safeguarding and oversight practices, and a clear ability to deliver measurable results in the Angolan context.
The maximum possible award amount (the award ceiling) is USD 2,250,000, and DRL expects to make one award under this announcement. With only a single anticipated award, the competition is likely to be highly selective, favoring proposals that present a coherent, well-justified approach, strong implementation capacity, and a compelling plan for impact. The announcement was created on December 13, 2023, and the original application closing date was February 23, 2024, indicating the window for submission was relatively short and that applicants would have needed to be prepared with a mature program concept and solid operational planning.
Overall, this funding opportunity is designed to support one substantial project aimed at improving conditions for free expression in Angola, and it invites proposals from a broad set of organizations that can show they are equipped to implement a serious, country-relevant initiative at a scale up to $2.25 million.Apply for SFOP0010156
