Opportunity Information: Apply for SFOP0005607
The DRL Women's Workforce Participation Program (Funding Opportunity Number SFOP0005607) is a discretionary grant opportunity released by the U.S. Department of State through the Bureau of Democracy, Human Rights and Labor (DRL), with acquisition support handled by the Department of State's Office of Acquisitions Management. The program invites organizations to compete for grant funding to carry out projects that advance international labor standards and strengthen women's right to participate in the workforce on equal terms, in safe conditions, and in a complete and meaningful way. In practical terms, the opportunity is aimed at efforts that reduce barriers to women's employment and improve workplace rights and protections, consistent with globally recognized labor norms.
The funding instrument is a grant, and the maximum award amount listed is up to $1,000,000. The opportunity is categorized under "Other" for the funding activity type, which signals that the work may cut across multiple areas (such as labor rights, human rights, rule of law, or civil society programming) rather than fitting neatly into a single standard category. The CFDA (now commonly referred to as Assistance Listing) number associated with the opportunity is 19.345, which corresponds to State Department democracy, human rights, and labor-related assistance.
Eligibility is shown as "Others," meaning the solicitation anticipates applicants beyond a single narrow class of entities and directs potential applicants to the full notice for the specific eligibility language and any restrictions or preferences. In similar DRL competitions, this often includes a range of organizations such as nonprofit or nongovernmental organizations, civil society groups, and potentially other qualified institutions, but the exact list is defined in the official additional eligibility section of the notice.
The notice was created on February 15, 2019, and the original application deadline was April 23, 2019. The listing notes "Expected Awards: 0," which typically reflects how the opportunity was recorded in the database rather than a definitive statement that no awards would be made; in many federal postings this field can be left blank, entered as zero, or otherwise not updated even when awards are anticipated. The core purpose remains clear: to support competitive, project-based work that promotes international labor standards while expanding women's equal, safe, and full participation in the workforce.Apply for SFOP0005607
