About this opportunity
The Department of State Bureau of Counterterrorism is seeking a cooperative agreement to develop early detection strategies for combating terrorist activities in Tajikistan. The project aims to build Tajikistan's capability to interdict terrorist movement by supporting at-risk communities in detecting and responding to illicit trends, with a specific focus on frontier localities. Eligible applicants include non-profit organizations, educational institutions, public international organizations, governmental institutions, and for-profit organizations. Proposals will be evaluated based on program idea quality, organizational capacity, cost-effectiveness, program design, and potential for sustainability. The application deadline is August 7, 2025, with electronic submissions required through Grants.gov or MyGrants, and applicants must have a Unique Entity Identifier (UEI) and be registered in SAM.gov.
The grant opportunity offers up to $1,497,975 for a single award, with a performance period of 24-36 months and an anticipated start date of September 30, 2025. The project will be implemented in Tajikistan, specifically targeting frontier localities where terrorist groups like ISIS-K seek to recruit and organize Central Asians. The cooperative agreement falls under the Global Counterterrorism Programs (CFDA 19.701) and will focus on developing strategies for early detection, reporting, and response to potential terrorist activities in the region.
Synopsis
Tajikistan is a critical counterterrorism nexus in Central Asia, a region ISIS-K seeks to exploit for recruitment and illicit cross-border activities. Despite vulnerabilities caused by Tajikistan's remote and rugged borders, which create risks of illicit movement, it appears the greatest terrorist risk to the region and U.S. security lies in the potential of terrorist groups to inspire, recruit, and organize Central Asians to commit attacks. This project seeks to develop early detection strategies for at-risk communities to detect, report, and respond to illicit trends and activities, with a focus in frontier localities. In doing so, this project builds Tajikistan's capability to interdict terrorist activity and movement through early detection, responding to terrorist activity at the source to protect America's borders and security.
