Opportunity Information: Apply for SFOP0005554
The 2019 South Sudan grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number SFOP0005554) was released by the U.S. Department of State, Bureau of Population, Refugees and Migration (PRM) on January 29, 2019, with an application deadline of March 1, 2019. It is a discretionary funding opportunity that would be awarded through a cooperative agreement, which generally means the funder expects a more hands-on partnership during implementation compared with a standard grant, including coordination, monitoring, and ongoing engagement on program direction and compliance.
The opportunity is focused geographically on South Sudan, specifically aiming proposed activities at refugees located in the legacy Unity and Upper Nile states. In practical terms, the funding is intended to support humanitarian protection and assistance efforts in areas affected by conflict and displacement, where refugee populations and host communities often have significant needs related to safety, basic services, and longer-term stability.
A central requirement is that projects must be refugee-centered: PRM states it will consider funding only those proposals where at least 50 percent of the target beneficiary population are refugees. This reflects PRM's mandate to provide protection, assistance, and sustainable solutions for refugees and victims of conflict. Applicants therefore would need to design programs with clear targeting and strong beneficiary verification approaches to demonstrate that refugees make up at least half of the people served, while still potentially including host community members or other conflict-affected groups as part of a balanced area-based response.
The award information indicates a maximum funding level (award ceiling) of $1,500,000 per award, with PRM anticipating up to 9 awards under this announcement. The funding activity category is listed as "Other," suggesting PRM expected a range of intervention types rather than a single narrowly defined sector. Even so, the description makes clear the unifying purpose: protecting and assisting refugees and supporting pathways toward sustainable solutions in the specified regions of South Sudan.
Eligibility is labeled broadly as "Others," meaning the announcement anticipated applications from non-traditional or varied eligible entities as defined in the full notice, rather than restricting eligibility to a single type of organization. The opportunity is associated with CFDA number 19.517, which is commonly used to track PRM refugee assistance-related funding across federal assistance systems.Apply for SFOP0005554
