About this opportunity
The Department of State's Office of Global Criminal Justice (GCJ) is seeking applications through a Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) to support accountability processes for alleged atrocity crimes committed globally by members of the Wagner Group and analogous Kremlin-backed paramilitaries, including tracking their corporate and financial enablers. Eligible activities include investigations by national authorities, cases before international and hybrid courts, and efforts to achieve corporate accountability. Applicants may include U.S. and foreign non-profit organizations, public international organizations, institutions of higher education, and U.S. for-profit organizations. The application deadline is July 26, 2024, and the funding is authorized under the Foreign Assistance Act of 1961, as amended.
The anticipated award amount is $1,300,000, with a single cooperative agreement expected to be made. The performance period is two years, with activities focused on developing evidentiary packages, expanding data and strategy exchanges, identifying prosecution venues, building perpetrator dossiers, and supporting case building in locations affected by the Wagner Group and similar Kremlin-backed paramilitaries, including Ukraine, the Middle East, and Africa.
