Opportunity Information: Apply for DOS ZAMBIA PE 2019 04
The U.S. Embassy in Lusaka, under the U.S. Department of State (U.S. Mission to Zambia), is offering a discretionary grant opportunity titled "Increasing Electoral Participation and Citizen Awareness of Public Corruption" (Funding Opportunity Number: DOS ZAMBIA PE 2019 04). This funding is intended to support programs in Zambia that strengthen democratic participation and improve public understanding of accountability and ethical governance. The opportunity is structured as an open competition in which eligible organizations are invited to submit proposals for one or more program activities aligned with the priorities described in the Notice of Funding Opportunity, with awards contingent on the availability of funds.
The grant focuses on two main program tracks. The first track targets voter education and electoral participation. Proposals under this track should aim to raise awareness of voter and electoral rights while actively encouraging voter registration and turnout, especially among constituency groups that have historically participated at low rates. Activities are expected to go beyond basic civic education by helping communities understand the accountability role of elected officials and the representational responsibilities leaders owe to citizens. The Embassy is looking for approaches that create multiplier effects, meaning they equip participants to share knowledge within their communities, and that leave a lasting, sustainable impact rather than a one-time awareness campaign.
The second track emphasizes anti-corruption awareness and public financial accountability. Programs in this category should raise public awareness and promote fiscal transparency, public accountability, and ethical management of public resources. The opportunity highlights examples such as educating the public about corruption risks and misuse of government funds in major infrastructure projects, encouraging transparency in public infrastructure and construction initiatives, and strengthening public resource management. It also notes the importance of improving protections and systems related to whistleblowing, suggesting that proposals may include activities that help citizens and institutions understand reporting channels, safeguards, and good practices that reduce retaliation and improve oversight.
From a funding and administrative standpoint, this opportunity is offered as a grant with an award ceiling of $200,000 per award, and the Embassy anticipates making up to four awards. The CFDA number listed is 19.700, and the funding activity category is listed as "Other" with additional clarification expected in the full notice. The opportunity was created on August 8, 2019, with an original application deadline of September 6, 2019. Eligibility is described broadly as "Others," with details intended to be clarified in the official Notice of Funding Opportunity, which applicants are instructed to review for full requirements, selection criteria, and submission instructions.
Overall, the opportunity is designed to support practical, scalable programs that either increase informed electoral participation among underrepresented voter groups or strengthen citizen oversight of public spending and integrity in the management of government resources. The Embassy is signaling interest in proposals that combine public education with durable mechanisms for community engagement and accountability, rather than short-term messaging alone.Apply for DOS ZAMBIA PE 2019 04
