About this opportunity

Written by GovTribe AI ·

The U.S. Department of State Office to Monitor and Combat Trafficking in Persons is forecasting a solicitation for research and implementation projects under the Program to End Modern Slavery (PEMS), with a Statement of Interest anticipated within the coming months; this is a Notice of Intent and applications are not currently being accepted.

PEMS targets human trafficking reduction in partner countries and jurisdictions through scientifically rigorous research, evidence-based programming, and victim-centered, trauma-informed approaches. Priority funding areas are supply chains, climate change and displacement, public health, financial inclusion, and sex trafficking. The program emphasizes measurable prevalence reduction, sound monitoring and evaluation practices, and the advancement of partnerships across governments, academia, civil society, the private sector, and international organizations.

Eligible applicants include commercial, international, educational, and non-profit organizations, including faith-based, community-based, and public international organizations. Lack of prior experience with Department of State cooperative agreements, grants, or contracts does not bar eligibility. All applicants must obtain a valid Unique Entity Identifier; while not required for initial submission via SAMS Domestic, organizations selected for award must hold a valid UEI number.

Congress has appropriated $25 million annually for PEMS since FY 2016, totaling $150 million to date. The program operates under CFDA 19.019 (International Programs to Combat Human Trafficking). A Statement of Interest will be posted on SAMS-Domestic and grants.gov, followed by a Notification of Funding Opportunity (NOFO). The attached FY22 PEMS Notice of Intent provides additional details on program structure and expectations.

Synopsis

Note: This is a Notice of Intent. An announcement is not related to this notice. The U.S. State Department' s Office to Monitor and Combat Trafficking in Persons (TIP Office) is not accepting applications at this time. Please review the attached notice for full details. Background: The goal of the Program to End Modern Slavery (PEMS) is to measurably and substantially reduce the prevalence of human trafficking in targeted populations in partner countries and jurisdictions through innovative interventions driven by research, monitoring, evaluation, and learning, and the expansion of partnerships. PEMS-funded efforts conduct scientifically rigorous research to establish evidence on the effects of anti-trafficking programs on the reduction of the prevalence of human trafficking through the advancement of sound prevalence measurement methodologies, strong monitoring and evaluation practices, evidence-based programming, and the application of victim-centered and trauma-informed approaches. The U.S. Congress has appropriated $25 million annually since Fiscal Year (FY) 2016 for PEMS, totaling $150 million to date. The TIP Office is interested in funding research and implementation projects focused on five priority areas as they relate to human trafficking: • Supply Chains • Climate Change and Displacement • Public Health • Financial Inclusion • Sex Trafficking PEMS encourages the use of partnerships with governments, academia, civil society, the private sector, other funders, and international organizations to advance the goals of the program and improve collaboration on the reduction of the prevalence of human trafficking. The TIP Office anticipates that a Statement of Interest (SOI) will be released within the next couple of months on SAMS-Domestic and grants.gov followed by a Notification of Funding Opportunity (NOFO).
