Opportunity Information: Apply for SFOP0007899
The "2021 Indonesia, Malaysia, and Thailand Full Proposal" opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number SFOP0007899) was a discretionary U.S. Department of State grant competition issued by the Bureau of Population, Refugees, and Migration (PRM). It was published on March 26, 2021, with an application deadline of April 28, 2021. The announcement invited full proposals for NGO-led programs that support refugees and asylum seekers in three specific countries in Southeast Asia: Indonesia, Malaysia, and Thailand. In practical terms, the opportunity was aimed at organizations with the capacity to design and implement humanitarian and protection-focused activities for refugee and asylum-seeking populations living in these host countries, often in contexts where legal status, access to services, and durable solutions can be limited.
The funding instrument for this opportunity was a cooperative agreement, which generally indicates a closer working relationship with the U.S. government than a standard grant. Under cooperative agreements, the agency typically expects substantial involvement in areas such as coordination, oversight, monitoring, or technical input during implementation. The opportunity was categorized under the broad funding activity category "Other" (with additional clarification referenced in the original notice), and it was associated with CFDA number 19.511, which corresponds to PRM humanitarian assistance programming. The listed award ceiling was $600,000, meaning individual awards were not expected to exceed that amount, though the notice did not state a minimum award amount in the provided data.
Eligibility was listed as "Others," with further details referenced in the full notice under additional eligibility information. This type of eligibility label is commonly used when the agency intends to allow applications from a defined set of non-federal entities (often NGOs, international organizations, or other qualified partners) while specifying exact requirements in the full announcement text. The opportunity description is clear that the intended beneficiaries were refugees and asylum seekers, so competitive proposals would typically be expected to demonstrate direct benefits to these populations in Indonesia, Malaysia, and/or Thailand, and to reflect strong contextual understanding, protection considerations, and coordination with relevant stakeholders in-country.
Although the notice included an "Expected Awards" field showing 0 in the provided extract, that figure is sometimes a placeholder or data-entry artifact rather than a literal statement that no awards will be made. The more reliable indicators of intent are the program description and the presence of an award ceiling and structured submission timeline, which together signal that PRM was soliciting implementable proposals for FY 2021 programming in the region.Apply for SFOP0007899
