The U.S. Department of State, Bureau of Democracy, Human Rights and Labor (DRL) is offering this grant to fund a research project. This grant is for building a robust portfolio of evidence that identifies effective democracy and human rights program strategies, ultimately enhancing their relevance and impact. The specific purpose of this research is to provide insights into how DRL can effectively support citizens in engendering support from security forces, particularly in repressive environments. The project should also analyze external factors influencing the likelihood of such security force cooperation, contributing to a deeper understanding of human rights advocacy in challenging contexts.
