What it funds
Official synopsis as published by the agency, formatted for readability.
The Secretary’s Office of Global Women’s Issues (S/GWI) announces this Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) for a new agreement to advance U.S. national security and foreign policy priorities by supporting women and girls who are at risk from gender-based violence (GBV), violent extremism, and conflict. Under this NOFO, S/GWI seeks proposals that will address the needs of women and girls adversely impacted by GBV, particularly female genital mutilation / cutting (FGM/C) and/or early forced marriage (EFM) , through the support of survivor-centered and/or informed activities in communities, countries, and regions impacted by conflict and violent extremism. This NOFO aims to support activities in continental Africa (including Sub-Saharan and Northern Africa). Proposals may work in one or more countries in the target region.
