Additional Information

Agency Name: U.S. Mission to Pakistan
Description: Overview: The Bureau of International Narcotics and Law Enforcement Affairs (INL) of the U.S. Department of State announces an open competition for organizations to submit applications to carry out a project to increase the effectiveness of investigation and prosecution of public corruption crimes.

This project will increase accountability and improve the handling of public corruption cases by both investigators and prosecutors through concurrent training and cooperation. This project will have three key components:

Objective 1: Training and capacity building
Training and building capacity of anti-corruption investigators and prosecutors.

Objective 2: Institutional support
Providing institutional support including policy level changes and technological advancements to strengthen accountability and social inclusion mechanisms.

Objective 3: Awareness Raising
Raising public awareness of project initiatives to improve citizens’ confidence in public service delivery so they are encouraged to report corruption cases.

The project will build capacity of investigators and prosecutors to handle public corruption cases both by training and mentoring a cadre of master trainers and by directly training investigators and prosecutors. The specific objectives are to increase the number of appropriate public corruption charges by law enforcement, improve the effective prosecution of public corruption cases, develop policies to encourage citizens to file complaints, and raise citizens’ awareness and confidence in public service delivery mechanisms.

This call for proposals is intended to scale up existing work in Balochistan and expand it to benefit anti-corruption establishments in Sindh, Punjab, and Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP) to:

1. Train investigators and prosecutors to prosecute corruption cases.
2. Provide institutional support to design effective policies that encourage transparency, accountability, and the use of modern technological tools to invest
