Bureau of Democracy Human Rights and Labor

Description

DRL seeks proposals for an 18-month project directed at improving the consultative process and facilitating dialogue among marginalized communities and stakeholders in the public and private sector in Panama, Peru, and Guatemala on issues related to natural resource extraction. The project should increase marginalized groups' access to technical, legal, and environmental advice while creating sustainable connections and networks among communities, government and the private sector. To the extent possible, the project should also take advantage of the potential to share and develop lessons learned on the Voluntary Principles on Security and Human Rights (VPs) from the Colombian model. The project should build on and closely coordinate with ongoing initiatives being implemented by USAID and other donors in these countries, ensuring that activities are not duplicated in the same geographic area.
