Opportunity Information: Apply for SFOP0006545
The "2020 Egypt" grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number SFOP0006545) is a discretionary funding announcement from the U.S. Department of State, Bureau of Population, Refugees and Migration (PRM), to be implemented in Egypt through a cooperative agreement. The overall purpose is to fund programs that primarily support refugee populations, consistent with PRM's mandate to provide protection, assistance, and sustainable solutions for refugees and victims of conflict. While host-community support can be included, the program design is expected to be refugee-centered and clearly tied to refugee needs and protection outcomes in Egypt.
A central requirement is that applicants define and report a clear beneficiary breakdown, specifically showing the proportions of Syrian refugees, non-Syrian refugees, and host-community members who will be served. PRM places strong emphasis on directing resources to the most vulnerable individuals within these groups, and proposals are expected to reflect vulnerability-driven targeting rather than general service delivery. In line with PRM policy, PRM will only consider projects in which at least 50 percent of the intended beneficiaries are refugees, meaning proposals need to be structured so that refugees are the majority of the target population and that this is measurable and verifiable through the project monitoring approach.
Protection mainstreaming is a major priority throughout the proposed activities. Applicants are expected to show how protection principles and protection outcomes are integrated across sectors, not treated as separate add-ons. The opportunity specifically calls for increased emphasis on gender-based violence (GBV) prevention and response and on child protection, suggesting that PRM expects applicants to incorporate safe access to services, risk mitigation, identification and referral pathways, staff training, survivor-centered approaches for GBV, and tailored safeguards for children into whatever sectoral work is proposed. In practical terms, proposals are likely expected to explain how services will reduce protection risks, increase safety and dignity, and ensure that vulnerable refugees (including women, children, and other at-risk groups) can access assistance without harm.
Eligible applicants include: (1) U.S.-based nonprofits with IRS 501(c)(3) status (excluding institutions of higher education), (2) nonprofits without 501(c)(3) status (also excluding institutions of higher education), and (3) international organizations. The announcement notes that international multilateral organizations, including UN agencies, should not submit proposals through Grants.gov for this opportunity. Instead, multilateral organizations seeking funding for relevant programming are instructed to contact the PRM Program Officer listed in the notice on or before the closing date. The notice also indicates that if an applicant wants institutions of higher education to be eligible, that should be discussed with PRM's NGO Coordinator and Comptroller, implying that universities are not standard eligible applicants under this particular call unless PRM makes an exception or provides separate guidance.
Key administrative details include an original closing date of April 17, 2020, and a funding ceiling (maximum award amount) of $900,000. The funding instrument is a cooperative agreement, which typically means PRM anticipates substantial involvement during implementation (for example, coordination on key decisions, reporting, or program adjustments), compared to a standard grant. The opportunity is associated with CFDA number 19.517 and was created on February 28, 2020.Apply for SFOP0006545
