Opportunity Information: Apply for SFOP0006308

The grant opportunity titled "DRL FY19 Promoting Religious Freedom in WHA" (Funding Opportunity Number SFOP0006308) is a discretionary grant competition run by the U.S. Department of State, Bureau of Democracy, Human Rights and Labor (DRL). It was created on December 12, 2019, with an original application deadline of January 27, 2020. The program is framed around supporting religious freedom globally, and the title indicates a particular focus connected to the WHA region, which commonly refers to the Western Hemisphere Affairs context.

This opportunity uses a grant as the funding instrument and is categorized under the broad activity type "Other," meaning applicants needed to consult the full notice for the specific programmatic framing and the kinds of activities DRL considered responsive. The CFDA (now often referenced as Assistance Listing) number tied to the funding is 19.345, which corresponds to Department of State public diplomacy and human rights-related assistance programming administered through DRL and similar offices.

In terms of funding scale, the maximum award amount (award ceiling) is listed as $750,000, and DRL anticipated making one award under this competition. That structure suggests DRL was looking for a single, cohesive project rather than multiple smaller grants, and that the selected applicant would likely be expected to propose a well-developed approach with clear objectives, measurable outcomes, and a credible implementation plan aligned with DRL priorities on advancing and protecting freedom of religion or belief.

Eligibility is listed as "Others," with additional eligibility details referenced as being provided elsewhere in the full announcement. In practice, DRL competitions often attract applications from a range of entities such as non-governmental organizations, non-profits, civil society groups, and potentially certain academic or international organizations, depending on the specific eligibility language in the full notice. Overall, the opportunity is a targeted, competitive State Department human rights grant aimed at supporting projects that advance religious freedom, with a single substantial award intended to fund one major initiative.
