Opportunity Information: Apply for INL18CA0055 COLUMBIA ROL 061218
The Colombia Counternarcotics and Rule of Law Capacity Building Program is a U.S. Department of State grant opportunity managed by the Bureau of International Narcotics and Law Enforcement Affairs (INL), specifically through the INL Narcotics Affairs Section in Colombia. It is designed to strengthen Colombia's counternarcotics and rule-of-law capabilities by funding an implementing partner that can run the practical, behind-the-scenes support needed to execute INL-directed capacity-building activities. In plain terms, INL is looking for an organization that can reliably organize and support training, travel, and operational activities that help Colombian and partner-country participants improve law enforcement and justice-sector performance, with an emphasis on counternarcotics and broader rule-of-law objectives.
The award mechanism is a cooperative agreement, which typically means INL expects to stay actively involved in guiding the work rather than simply providing funds and stepping back. The selected recipient would act as a backbone support entity for INL Section Colombia programs, providing programmatic planning assistance, logistics, and administrative management. The scope is intentionally broad and flexible: activities may occur in Colombia or in other locations worldwide, depending on training needs and operational priorities. The opportunity emphasizes support for travel and training programs, along with operational support, for a wide range of participants. Those participants can include Colombian law enforcement and justice personnel, members of the military, civil society actors, government officials, and other relevant stakeholders. It may also include participants from the United States, Central America, and other countries when cross-border collaboration or regional learning is important.
The funding opportunity is categorized under Law, Justice, and Legal Services and is listed under CFDA number 19.704. The program has an award ceiling of up to $9,000,000, indicating a large-scale effort that can cover substantial training and travel requirements as well as the administrative infrastructure to manage complex international programming. The opportunity is discretionary and was originally posted with a closing date of July 12, 2018, under the funding opportunity number INL18CA0055 (COLUMBIA ROL 061218). While the notice references "expected awards," the specific number of anticipated awards is not provided in the source text, suggesting it may depend on funding availability and INL programming decisions.
Eligibility is limited to certain types of organizations. Applicants may be U.S.-based or overseas-based non-profit/non-governmental organizations, but NGOs must have 501(c)(3) status with the IRS. Eligible applicants also include U.S. or overseas private or state institutions of higher education. Overall, the opportunity is best understood as a platform for an experienced organization to serve as INL's operational partner, ensuring that trainings, travel, and related support functions are delivered efficiently, compliantly, and in alignment with INL Section Colombia's counternarcotics and rule-of-law capacity-building goals.Apply for INL18CA0055 COLUMBIA ROL 061218
