Opportunity Information: Apply for SFOP0009064

The funding opportunity titled 22.PMWRA.SolomonIslandsUXO.NOFO (Funding Opportunity Number SFOP0009064) is a discretionary U.S. Department of State grant competition run through the Bureau of Political-Military Affairs, Office of Weapons Removal and Abatement (PM/WRA). It is structured as a cooperative agreement, which typically means the Department of State expects to have an ongoing, hands-on partnership with the selected implementer during the period of performance, rather than simply providing funds and stepping back. The overall purpose is to support humanitarian efforts in the Solomon Islands related to unexploded ordnance (UXO) and broader explosive hazards, with activities planned for fiscal year 2023.

The program focus is on reducing the risks and impacts posed by explosive remnants of war through a mix of field operations and national capacity strengthening. Supported work can include technical and non-technical survey, which are complementary processes used to identify, confirm, and map hazardous areas and to determine where explosive contamination is likely present or can be ruled out. The opportunity also highlights national capacity support, specifically calling out database completion and management, which points to the need for strengthening information management systems so the Solomon Islands can track hazardous areas, survey results, clearance outputs, and risk education coverage in a consistent and sustainable way. In addition to survey and capacity building, PM/WRA is open to proposals that include humanitarian mine action activities more broadly and/or explosive ordnance risk education, meaning community-based education and messaging intended to prevent accidents by helping people recognize hazards and adopt safer behaviors.

Financially, PM/WRA anticipates a single award under this notice, with an award ceiling of up to 1,000,000 USD and an expected number of awards listed as 1. The opportunity was posted on June 15, 2022, and the original application closing date was September 16, 2022. The CFDA (now commonly referred to as Assistance Listing) number associated with this opportunity is 19.800, which corresponds to Department of State public assistance programming in this area. While the notice references additional specific goals, objectives, and technical application requirements being detailed elsewhere in the full announcement, the core intent is clear: fund a capable implementer to help the Solomon Islands better identify explosive hazards, improve national systems for managing and using contamination data, and reduce civilian risk through mine action operations and/or targeted risk education.

Eligibility for this competition is limited to nonprofit organizations that do not have 501(c)(3) status with the IRS, other than institutions of higher education. In practical terms, that category often includes certain international or non-U.S. nonprofit entities, as well as other qualifying nonprofit structures that meet the eligibility definition used in the notice. The awarding agency is the Department of State, Bureau of Political-Military Affairs - WRA, and the activity category is listed as "Other" with additional clarification indicated in the full text. Overall, this is a targeted, country-specific cooperative agreement intended to produce measurable improvements in explosive hazard identification, risk reduction, and local institutional capability in the Solomon Islands.
