About this opportunity
The Department of State Bureau of Oceans and International Environmental and Scientific Affairs is seeking applicants for a Cooperative Agreement to launch and facilitate a policy workshop series, known as the Track 1.5 Dialogue on Global Water Security. The program aims to foster discussions that will inform and help shape the future direction of the global water security agenda, with a focus on including representatives from designated High Priority Countries and underrepresented voices. Key objectives are to diversify and deepen discussion of water security issues, inform the direction of the agenda to support equitable economic growth and address inequalities, and build capacity for High Priority Country representatives to engage internationally. The evaluation criteria will prioritize proposals that effectively convene workshops and events combining official and unofficial participation to foster broader discussion. Applications are due by July 30, 2023.
Up to $1,300,000 in FY 2023 Economic Support Funds (ESF) is available for this cooperative agreement. The program is expected to be a time-bound, action-oriented effort over multiple years to strategically leverage existing arenas for dialogue, such as academic, policy, and intergovernmental gatherings on water and water-related sectors and processes. The program's geographic scope encompasses at least three distinct shared water areas across separate regions, with a priority given to the Indo-Pacific region.
Synopsis
A Cooperative Agreement for up to $1,300,000 U.S. Dollars in FY 2023 Economic Support Funds (ESF) awarded for the launch and facilitation of a policy workshop series (Track 1.5 Dialogue) designed to foster discussions that will inform and help shape the future direction of the global water security agenda. The workshop series facilitator will be responsible for organizing, leading, and sustaining an on-going dialogue between relevant officials and stakeholders, while prioritizing the involvement of "High Priority Country" (HPC) representatives and strengthening their capacity to engage in international water processes, for example assisting HPC representatives in identifying and communicating specific water sector challenges. These track 1.5 workshops will take advantage of the momentum and opportunities stemming from the 2023 UN Water Conference and Water Action Decade and will seek to strategically leverage existing arenas for dialogue, such as academic, policy, and intergovernmental gatherings on water and water-related sectors and processes. This time-bound, action-oriented program will explicitly feature elements designed to break out of established often narrow policy discussions and broaden the diversity of voices included in the global conversation. The program's goal is to strengthen global water security through improved international communication, collaboration, and coordination by establishing a track 1.5 dialogue process with a particular focus on the inclusion of countries most at risk from water insecurity and/or lack of access to water and sanitation.
