| Description: |
The Pacific Environment, Science, Technology and Health (ESTH) Hub — based at the U.S. Embassy in Suva, Fiji — announces an open competition for organizations interested in submitting applications for small grants to support local or regional small-scale ESTH projects in eligible countries in the Pacific islands at $20,000 or less per award. Funding for these awards will be provided by the U.S. Department of State Bureau of Oceans and International Environmental and Scientific Affairs (OES).
Projects should address one or more of the following environmental areas of focus: · Addressing climate change through ingenuity and innovation · Combating conservation crimes and strengthening governance in wildlife, logging, mining, and fishing · Promoting U.S. pollution control and waste management expertise · Combating marine debris and pollution · Protecting against infectious diseases and building global health security
Projects may propose activities targeted through this solicitation in the following countries: the Federated States of Micronesia (FSM); Fiji; Kiribati; Papua New Guinea; Republic of the Marshall Islands (RMI); Samoa; the Solomon Islands; Tonga; Tuvalu; or Vanuatu.
Projects should seek to meet local or regional needs, involve local expertise and know-how in the design and implementation phases of the project, and should build monitoring and evaluation – including time-bound milestones for performance/results into the project. Proposals for $20,000 or over will not be considered. Projects may serve to implement discrete phases of larger projects or programs (e.g., one country of a multi-country program, only the public education phase of an environmental law project, tree planting in only one region of a country-wide program, only a fish population study of a broader river quality program, etc.)
The funding will be for U.S. Government Fiscal Year (FY) 2020 Economic Support Funds, under the authority of the Foreign Assistance Act of 1961, as amended (FAA). |
