The U.S. Department of State's Bureau of International Security and Nonproliferation has awarded a $840,821 Project Grant under the Export Control and Related Border Security (EXBS) Program to the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC). The award, effective from Sep 30, 2024 to Sep 30, 2026, will provide maintenance support to Lebanon's maritime enforcement bodies. The EXBS Program focuses on enhancing global export controls and border security capabilities to prevent the proliferation of weapons of mass destruction, conventional arms, and related sensitive materials and technologies. UNODC, as a registered not-for-profit organization in the U.S. federal government's System for Award Management (SAM.gov), will utilize this grant funding to deliver technical assistance, training, and capacity-building programs to strengthen Lebanon's maritime law enforcement and border security operations.
