Opportunity Information: Apply for 2016SGP001
The U.S. Embassy in Singapore (Department of State, U.S. Mission to Singapore) is offering a discretionary grant competition to fund the organization of a U.S.-ASEAN conference focused on legal issues of regional importance. The central aim is to convene a high-level, policy-relevant discussion on current legal questions that matter to the United States, ASEAN, and ASEAN partners, with an emphasis on how international jurisprudence connects to legal issues affecting ASEAN and its surrounding region. The event is positioned as part of a broader series of thematic U.S.-ASEAN conferences designed to bring together think tank specialists, strategic thinkers, and academic experts.
Proposed conferences are expected to go beyond general dialogue and instead provide structured examination of the existing legal architecture in the region. Applicants are encouraged to design an agenda that surfaces challenges, contested areas, and ongoing debates within the Asia-Pacific multilateral environment, and then translates those discussions into practical recommendations that policymakers in ASEAN and the wider regional framework can use. In other words, the conference should function as both an analytical forum and a generator of actionable policy input, grounded in serious legal analysis and informed by international legal developments.
Funding is provided through a grant instrument under the Law, Justice and Legal Services activity category (CFDA 19.124). The program anticipates making a single award, with an award ceiling of up to $250,000. Eligible applicants are limited to nonprofit organizations, including both 501(c)(3) nonprofits and nonprofits without 501(c)(3) status, as long as they are not institutions of higher education. The opportunity is identified as Funding Opportunity Number 2016SGP001, created on December 13, 2016, with an original closing date of January 6, 2017. The notice also highlights that the timeline is tight, noting the opportunity had been posted on the U.S. Embassy Singapore website earlier (in November), signaling that proposals should be ready to move quickly from award to implementation and that planning, logistics, speaker recruitment, and execution capacity will matter.
Overall, this opportunity funds an organization to design and deliver a focused, expert-driven U.S.-ASEAN legal conference that meaningfully engages think tanks and academia, examines regional legal structures and disputes through the lens of international jurisprudence, and produces policy-relevant recommendations for decision-makers operating within ASEAN and the broader Asia-Pacific multilateral landscape.Apply for 2016SGP001
