About this opportunity
The Department of State's Bureau of International Security and Nonproliferation is seeking applicants for the "Countering DPRK and Iran's WMD, UAS, and Missile Proliferation" federal grant opportunity. The program aims to support capacity-building, open-source research, and specialized efforts to help countries detect and disrupt financial and material flows that fund North Korea's weapons of mass destruction and related delivery system development. Eligible applicants include U.S. and foreign non-profit/non-governmental organizations, federally funded R&D centers, public international entities, higher education institutions, and U.S. for-profit organizations. The evaluation will focus on the applicant's ability to implement programs that impede DPRK's virtual asset theft, Iran's procurement of proliferation-sensitive technologies, DPRK sanctions evasion finance, and DPRK overseas labor activities. The application deadline is January 17, 2025.
The total funding available is $12,500,000, with individual awards expected to range from $250,000 to $500,000. The period of performance is 15 months, from October 1, 2025 to December 31, 2026.

Synopsis
2 versions
Update #2 · Latest ·
While the United States continues to seek negotiations with the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK) to achieve the denuclearization of the Korean Peninsula, it maintains the policy that international pressure and sanctions must remain in force until the DPRK fully denuclearizes. ISN/CTR supports the pressure campaign against the DPRK by training partners to implement United Nations Security Council Resolutions (UNSCRs) constraining the DPRK's weapons of mass destruction (WMD) proliferation, to detect and halt DPRK-linked sanctions evasion activities, and to impede the DPRK's material and financial activities that fund the development of WMD and related delivery systems. ISN/CTR achieves this mission through capacity-building programs, open-source research, and other specialized efforts, all of which help countries detect and shut down financial and material flows to the DPRK.
