Opportunity Information: Apply for SFOP0006784
The Department of State, Bureau of International Narcotics and Law Enforcement Affairs (INL) is offering a discretionary grant opportunity titled "Wildlife Trafficking and Illegal Mining Research Projects" (Funding Opportunity Number SFOP0006784). The program falls under the Environment funding activity category and is listed under CFDA 19.705. It was created on April 10, 2020, with an original application closing date of June 10, 2020. The overall focus, as indicated by the title and description, is to support research projects that address wildlife trafficking and illegal mining, two issues that often intersect with transnational crime, governance challenges, and environmental harm.
Eligibility is limited to nonprofit organizations that have 501(c)(3) status with the IRS, excluding institutions of higher education. In practical terms, that means the intended applicants are charitable nonprofit entities with demonstrated capacity to design and carry out research-oriented projects, rather than universities or colleges applying directly. The award is structured as a grant, and the total potential funding per award can be as high as $750,000 (the award ceiling). The opportunity anticipates making two awards, suggesting a competitive selection process where only a small number of proposals will be funded and where applicants will likely need to present a clear research plan, strong organizational qualifications, and a compelling case for how their work will contribute to combating wildlife trafficking and illegal mining.
Because this is a research-focused opportunity administered by INL, the implied emphasis is on generating usable evidence and analysis that can inform policy, enforcement, and broader counter-crime strategies tied to environmental and natural resource crimes. While the source details provided do not specify geographic scope, required deliverables, or preferred methodologies, the framing points toward applied research that can support government and partner decision-making, such as understanding trafficking networks, identifying enabling factors, assessing impacts, and developing recommendations or tools to improve responses.Apply for SFOP0006784
