Eligibility
Full Description
USAID/Georgia is requesting applications from Georgian civil society organizations (CSOs) in support of its new Elections and Political Processes project (2019-2023). Proposed CSO activities will aim to improve how Georgian citizens and their diverse interests are represented and satisfied through the political system. USAID intends to provide approximately $4-$5 million in total USAID funding, subject to the availability of funds, to Georgian organizations through approximately 5-7 assistance awards with up to a 42-month period (3.5 years) of performance between 2019 and 2023. Assistance awards will contribute to the following project sub-purposes: (i) empower and enable the electorate to effectively demand issues-based political party programs and policy agendas responsive to their needs; (ii) level the electoral playing field to ensure elections are free and fair competitions; and (iii) boost participation and representation of politically marginalized groups (e.g.
women, youth, minorities, persons with disabilities) to ensure their interests are heard and represented by the political system.
