Opportunity Information: Apply for DRLA DRLAQM 18 022
The U.S. Department of State, Bureau of Democracy, Human Rights and Labor (DRL) announced a discretionary grant competition titled "DRL Supporting Justice and Accountability Efforts in Tunisia" (funding opportunity number DRLA-DRLAQM-18-022). The opportunity is aimed at organizations interested in proposing projects that strengthen Tunisian-led justice and accountability initiatives, with an overall goal of advancing Tunisia's transitional justice process through coordinated work with relevant government bodies and civil society partners. The funding instrument is a grant, the CFDA number is 19.345, and the maximum award amount listed is up to $1,000,000.
The program focus centers on helping Tunisia implement transitional justice commitments, particularly those embedded in the constitution and in the Organic Law on Establishing and Organizing Transitional Justice. In practical terms, DRL signals interest in projects that improve the ability of key institutions, both governmental and non-governmental, to carry out transitional justice responsibilities effectively and in a coordinated way. This can include technical assistance, training, systems strengthening, and support for collaborative mechanisms that allow different actors involved in transitional justice to work together rather than in isolation.
Another major emphasis is supporting stakeholders in translating existing commitments and recommendations into an actionable implementation plan, including those referenced in Part 8 of the Organic Law. This suggests the Bureau is not only looking for broad advocacy or general programming, but also for concrete planning and follow-through that helps move transitional justice from formal commitments into steps that can be executed, monitored, and sustained over time. The opportunity also highlights support for Tunisian civil society organizations to advocate for implementation of transitional justice measures, including raising public awareness of the transitional justice process and pushing for continued progress when momentum slows or political will is uneven.
In addition, DRL notes interest in strengthening collaboration between government and civil society on transitional justice measures. While the notice text is truncated at the end, the intent is clear: proposals that build bridges, align strategies, and create structured engagement between official institutions and non-governmental actors are consistent with the opportunity's objectives, especially where such collaboration helps implement commitments and recommendations already established in Tunisian law and policy frameworks.
Administratively, the notice explains that the opportunity was temporarily withdrawn to add an application kit in the SAMS Domestic portal under "Additional Documents to be submitted." That kit clarifies which documents are mandatory versus optional during the upload and submission process, and the temporary removal led to a duplicate notice appearing for applicants using Grants.gov. DRL strongly urged applicants to submit before 5:00 pm U.S. East Coast time on January 21, 2018, using either SAMS Domestic (https://mygrants.service-now.com) or Grants.gov under the same opportunity number, and it states that applications submitted after January 22, 2018 would not be accepted. The opportunity was created on January 11, 2018, and lists eligibility in a broad "Others" category, with details referenced in an eligibility clarification field not included in the text provided.Apply for DRLA DRLAQM 18 022
