The Bureau of International Labor Affairs (DOL-ILAB) intends to award a Cooperative Agreement to Free the Slaves for a project aimed at promoting the voices and engagement of individuals with lived experience to prevent labor exploitation. This initiative focuses on providing technical assistance to amplify the perspectives of those who have directly experienced human trafficking, forced labor, child labor, and other forms of labor exploitation, while also supporting governments in integrating these voices into their policies and procedures. The total funding for this project is estimated at $2 million, with a single award anticipated, and interested parties can reach out to Carlie Ortiz at (202) 693-9303 or via email at ortiz.carlie@dol.gov for further information. This opportunity is forecasted for fiscal year 2024 and is categorized as discretionary funding under CFDA number 17.401.
