Description

The Department of State’s Bureau of Economic and Business Affairs (EB) is pleased to announce a competition for assistance through this Request for Proposals (RFP). EB invites U.S. non-profit/non-governmental organizations, as well as public and private institutions of higher education, to submit grant proposals that will offer unique, sustainable, technically sound approaches that will assist Maghreb (the Maghreb includes: Algeria, Libya, Mauritania, Morocco and Tunisia) officials and educators in informing them of community college and vocational training curricula and models. This will be accomplished by a delegation of education professionals and ensuing follow up. EB will consider proposals from U.S. and Maghreb-based NGOs. Applicants must propose key personnel and trainers who are regional experts. EB’s mission is to build prosperity and economic security at home and abroad. We formulate and carry out U.S. foreign economic policy, and work to sustain a more democratic, secure, and prosperous world. To address the cross-cutting global challenges of this century successfully, we take a leadership role in establishing and maintaining new patterns of international economic cooperation.The initial period of performance will be for 12 months. Funding authority rests in the Smith-Mundt Act of 1948, as amended. All award decisions are contingent upon the availability of funding.
