About this opportunity
The U.S. Department of Labor's Bureau of International Labor Affairs (ILAB) is seeking applications for a $4 million cooperative agreement to fund a 54-month project in Tanzania to combat child labor and promote acceptable conditions of work in the country's artisanal and small-scale gold mining sector. The project aims to increase the capacity of key stakeholders to collect and disseminate data, monitor and report on child labor and acceptable conditions of work, and address these issues at the local level. Eligible applicants include commercial, international, educational, and non-profit organizations. The application deadline is September 23, 2024, and award decisions are expected between September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2024.
ILAB may consider a potential Phase II of the project to provide an additional $4 million in funding, contingent on need, funding availability, and the recipient's satisfactory performance in Phase I. The project will be implemented in one of four specified regions in Tanzania over a period of 54 months.
