Opportunity Information: Apply for SFOP0007030
This funding opportunity, titled "Logistics, Meeting Coordination, and Digital Communications Support for Environmental Cooperation" (Funding Opportunity Number SFOP0007030), is a U.S. Department of State program administered by the Bureau of Oceans and International Environmental and Scientific Affairs. It was offered as a discretionary cooperative agreement in the environment funding activity category, under CFDA number 19.017. The opportunity was created on June 2, 2020, with an original application closing date of July 31, 2020. The program anticipated making one award, with a maximum funding level (award ceiling) of $197,500. Eligibility was listed broadly as "Others," with additional eligibility details referenced in the full announcement.
The core purpose of the grant is to strengthen and streamline communication and information sharing in both English and Spanish around environmental cooperation commitments connected to U.S. Free Trade Agreements (FTAs). The program is centered on practical, day-to-day support that helps environmental cooperation processes run smoothly across countries and institutions. Rather than funding on-the-ground conservation projects directly, the emphasis is on enabling collaboration, coordination, and outreach so that environmental dialogue and joint activities tied to FTAs can happen consistently and effectively.
To achieve this, the recipient would work closely with the Department of State office identified as OES/EQT. The work is divided into two main areas. First, the recipient would provide meeting and event coordination support for key environmental cooperation bodies and sessions, including the Environmental Affairs Council (EAC), the Environmental Cooperation Commission (ECC), and related meetings. This support includes handling logistics such as participant travel arrangements, lodging coordination, translation and interpretation needs, and other operational requirements for both in-person and virtual engagements. In practice, this means ensuring meetings are scheduled, accessible to participants in two languages, and supported with the services needed for productive discussions and formal exchanges.
Second, the recipient would support digital communications tied to these environmental cooperation efforts, particularly through management and coordination of the CAFTA-DR (Dominican Republic-Central America Free Trade Agreement) Environment Cooperation Program website. Alongside website support, the recipient would also provide social media communications assistance as needed. This digital component is designed to keep stakeholders informed, maintain an accessible public-facing record of activities and resources, and help amplify key updates or outcomes from environmental cooperation processes linked to FTAs.
Overall, the opportunity funds a combination of logistical coordination and bilingual communications work that keeps the machinery of international environmental cooperation functioning, especially where structured councils, commissions, and formal meetings are required to advance commitments and maintain ongoing collaboration across countries under trade agreement frameworks.Apply for SFOP0007030
