Opportunity Information: Apply for SFOP0005569
The grant opportunity titled "DRL Addressing Early and Forced Marriage in Morocco" (Funding Opportunity Number SFOP0005569) is a discretionary grant competition released by the U.S. Department of State's Bureau of Democracy, Human Rights and Labor (DRL). It was created on February 19, 2019, with an application deadline originally set for April 12, 2019. The opportunity sits under CFDA number 19.345, which is commonly associated with State Department foreign assistance programming focused on democracy, human rights, and labor-related objectives.
At its core, the program is aimed at supporting projects in Morocco that strengthen the rule of law while also advancing the equal status of women and girls and improving their participation in public life. The title and framing make clear that the focus is specifically tied to addressing early and forced marriage, a human rights and legal protection issue that often intersects with access to justice, legal safeguards, social norms, and the ability of girls and women to fully participate in education, civic life, and economic opportunities. In practical terms, DRL is signaling interest in interventions that do more than provide services; it is looking for work that meaningfully reinforces legal rights, improves accountability, and helps ensure protections are implemented in ways that reduce vulnerability to early and forced marriage.
The funding instrument is a grant, with an award ceiling listed at $750,000. The posting lists "ExpectedAwards: 0," which typically should not be read as a definitive indication that no awards will be made, but rather as an administrative placeholder in the source data. The activity category is labeled "Other," with a note that further explanation would normally appear in the full notice text. Eligibility is also listed broadly as "Others," again implying that additional detail would be provided in the complete announcement, such as whether applicants may include nonprofit organizations, NGOs, civil society groups, educational institutions, or other entities, and whether there are any restrictions related to nationality, registration, or past performance.
Overall, this opportunity is best understood as a targeted DRL grant competition seeking strong proposals for Morocco that connect the prevention of early and forced marriage with rule-of-law outcomes and the empowerment of women and girls in public life. Applicants would be expected to propose credible, context-aware programming aligned with DRL's democracy and human rights mandate, with budgets not exceeding $750,000 and submissions made within the February-to-April 2019 application window indicated in the notice.Apply for SFOP0005569
