U.S. Mission to Liberia
Summary: The U.S. Mission to Liberia is seeking proposals for a grant to support programs that enhance domestic capacity and coordination to advance internationally accepted investment standards in Liberia. The project aims to address the lack of awareness, capacity, and governance in host countries, which often leads to investments failing to meet international standards. The grant will bring together government, civil society, journalists, academics, and other stakeholders to build Liberia's internal capacity and ensure future investments adhere to improved standards. The project will include components such as providing investment best practices, case studies on transparency in negotiating investment deals, training government officials on developing investment frameworks, mentoring on public awareness campaigns, and organizing seminars on investment-related challenges and successes in Africa. The grant is open to U.S.-based and/or Liberian non-profit institutions, non-governmental organizations, academic institutions, for-profit organizations, individuals, public international organizations, and governmental institutions. The total program funding is $2,000,000, with an award ceiling of $750,000 and an award floor of $250,000. The deadline for applications is August 5, 2024.
