Executive Summary: The Ambassadors Resilience Fund aims to build resilience to violent conflict and violent extremism in Guinea by strengthening social cohesion in at-risk communities. A total of $100,000 U.S. Dollars (USD) in FY 2023 Regional Peace and Security Funds will be awarded through this RSOI (pending availability of funds), with individual grants expected to be awarded in the range of $10,000 - $25,000 U.S. Dollars (USD) for work that will support program objectives. A. PROGRAM DESCRIPTION The U.S. Embassy in Conakry announces an open competition for organizations to submit a Statement of Interest (SOI) to carry out innovative, small-scale, community-focused projects aimed at building social cohesion and resilience among at-risk communities in Guinea. Projects should seek to address underlying drivers of violent conflict and violent extremism, such as lack of equitable access to economic opportunity, competition over scarce resources, and identity-based stigmatization or marginalization. Embassy Conakry invites organizations interested in potential funding to submit SOI applications outlining program concepts that reflect these goals. Please carefully follow all instructions below. The Ambassadors Resilience Fund is designed to contribute to the U.S. Strategy to Prevent Conflict and Promote Stability (SPCPS) in Coastal West Africa. The SPCPS seeks to promote peace and prevent violent conflict and violent extremism that risks destabilizing Coastal West Africa (including Guinea, Cote dIvoire, Ghana, Togo, and Benin). It aims to implement a new policy approach that addresses the political drivers of fragility and supports locally driven solutions. The submission of the SOI is the first step in a two-step process. Applicants must first submit a concise one- to three-page statement of interest designed to clearly communicate program idea and objectives. This is not a full proposal. The purpose of the SOI process is to allow applicants to submit program ideas for evaluation prior to the required development of a full proposal application. Upon a merit review of eligible SOIs, selected applicants will be invited to expand on their program idea(s) by submitting a full proposal application. Full proposals will go through a second merit review before final funding decision(s) are made.
