The primary objective is to enhance the capabilities of civil society in Peru to combat corruption and promote accountability.

The proposal may involve the requesting organization itself or other civil society entities without strict eligibility criteria. The expression of interest must adhere to a three-page limit without a prescribed format for the timeline. Both primary and subrecipient applicants must obtain a Unique Entity Identifier (UEI), but only the lead applicant is required to be registered in the System for Award Management (SAM.gov). Although a budget narrative form is mandated by Grants.gov, only a basic budget is necessary within the SOI, allowing for simplified submissions. For further support with the application process, applicants are advised to contact Grants.gov directly. Overall, the document emphasizes the importance of broad participation in anti-corruption efforts while delineating the framework for funding and application submission.
