About this opportunity

The National Institute of Justice (NIJ), operating under the Department of Justice Office of Justice Programs, seeks funding applicants to continue operations of the Secretariat of Subcommittee 37 (SC 37) under the Joint Technical Committee 1 (JTC 1) of the International Organization for Standardization/International Electrotechnical Commission (ISO/IEC). This opportunity supports scientific research, evaluation, and development projects designed to reduce crime, advance justice, and improve criminal justice practices through the development of new knowledge and tools applicable at state and local levels. Applicants must demonstrate expertise in international standards development, secretariat operations, and coordination of technical committees related to justice and public safety. Proposals will be evaluated competitively by peer review panels consisting of outside experts, with assessment based on technical quality, merit of the problems addressed, and alignment with the program's objectives to foster practical, actionable knowledge. The application deadline is February 24, 2026, with approximately 180 days required for full proposal review and approval.

Award values under the National Institute of Justice Research, Evaluation, and Development Project Grants program (CFDA 16.560) historically range from approximately $25,000 to $6.9 million, with project periods typically spanning one to five years. Secretariat operations for international standards committees typically require sustained funding over multi-year periods to ensure continuity of coordination and technical management functions. Performance will occur at the recipient organization's facilities and may involve collaboration with international partners and local jurisdictions. All award recipients must comply with 2 CFR 200 requirements for audit, financial management, and record retention for three years following final expenditure reporting.
