Eligibility

Eligible Applicants: Others (see text field entitled “Additional Information on Eligibility” for clarification)
Additional Information on Eligibility: Any commercial, international, educational, or non-profit organization(s), including any faith-based, community-based, or public international organization(s) capable of successfully withdrawing and preventing children from exploitive child labor and developing and implementing educational programs to serve this target population in the target country is eligible to apply, provided that the organization is in compliance with audit requirements and can demonstrate presence in the target country, as outlined below. Applications from foreign governments and entities that are agencies of, or operated by or for, a foreign state or government will not be considered. Applications from organizations designated by the U.S. Government to be associated with terrorism or that have been debarred or suspended will not be considered. Applicants (which in the case of an Association, includes all members of the Association) are not allowed to charge a fee (profit) associated with a project funded by USDOL under this award. Lack of past experience with USDOL cooperative agreements, grants, or contracts is not a bar to eligibility or selection under this solicitation.

Applicants (which, in the case of an Association, includes all members of the Association) and any proposed subcontractors must be in compliance with all audit requirements established in OMB Circular A-133. For Applicants and their subcontractors that are U.S.-based non-profit organizations and subject to the Single Audit Act, failure to conduct annual single audits or comply with single audit submission timeframes established in OMB Circular A-133 will result in an application being considered non-responsive and being rejected. For Applicants and any proposed subcontractors that are foreign-based or for-profit organizations, failure to submit the most current independent financial audit will result in an application being considered non-responsive and rejected. In addition, the submission of any audit report that reflects adverse opinions will also result in the application being considered non-responsive and being rejected.

Applicants must demonstrate presence in the target country— either independently or through a relationship with another organization with country presence (i.e., a subcontractor) — which gives it the ability to initiate program activities upon award of the cooperative agreement. For Applicants applying as an Association, this requirement can be met if one or more members of the Association can demonstrate presence in the target country. Applicants must be formally recognized by the host government using the appropriate mechanism (e.g., Memorandum of Understanding, local registration of the organization) within 60 days of signing the cooperative agreement. Further information can be found on pages 24-26 of the SGA.
