Opportunity Information: Apply for PRM PRMOAPEA 16 001
This FY 2016 Notice of Funding Opportunity is a discretionary U.S. government grant competition run by the Department of State, Bureau of Population, Refugees, and Migration (PRM). The opportunity is aimed at supporting NGO programs that benefit refugees and asylum seekers in Thailand, Malaysia, Indonesia, and the surrounding region. Funding is provided through a cooperative agreement, which generally means PRM expects to have an active role in working with the recipient during the life of the award (for example through coordination, monitoring, and agreed-upon program adjustments), rather than simply issuing a grant and stepping back.
The funding opportunity number is PRM PRMOAPEA 16 001, and the CFDA number listed is 19.511. The announcement was created on March 23, 2016, with an original application closing date of April 22, 2016. The stated award ceiling is $5,000,000, meaning proposed budgets can be as large as that amount, although the announcement does not specify how many total awards PRM expects to make in this cycle.
Eligibility is centered on nonprofit organizations. The eligible applicant categories listed include U.S. nonprofits with 501(c)(3) tax-exempt status (but explicitly excluding institutions of higher education) as well as nonprofits without 501(c)(3) status (also excluding institutions of higher education). The announcement also includes an “Others” category, which signals that PRM may consider additional types of applicants depending on the specific circumstances and PRM policy, though the text provided does not detail exactly which additional entities qualify under that heading. A notable caveat is included about universities: institutions of higher education are not included in the listed nonprofit eligibility categories, and the notice advises that if an applicant wants higher education institutions to be eligible, that issue should be discussed with PRM’s NGO Coordinator. In practical terms, that reads as a warning that universities are not presumed eligible under this particular posting and that any exception would need to be clarified directly with PRM.
The notice draws a bright line regarding international multilateral organizations, such as United Nations agencies. These organizations are told not to submit proposals through Grants.gov in response to this announcement. Instead, multilateral organizations seeking funding for relevant programs are instructed to contact the designated PRM Program Officer on or before the closing date. This is essentially an alternate pathway for UN agencies and similar bodies, separating them from the standard NGO submission process and likely reflecting different funding mechanisms, agreements, or coordination requirements PRM uses with multilateral partners.
In short, this opportunity is designed for NGO-led refugee and asylum seeker assistance efforts in parts of Southeast Asia, with substantial potential funding per award (up to $5 million) and a cooperative agreement structure that implies close coordination with PRM. Standard applications from eligible nonprofits would be submitted via the normal grants process, while UN and other multilateral organizations are directed to coordinate directly with PRM staff rather than applying through Grants.gov.Apply for PRM PRMOAPEA 16 001
