Opportunity Information: Apply for SFOP0005669
The FY18/19 IRF Combatting Anti-Semitism in EUR and SCA grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number SFOP0005669) was issued by the U.S. Department of State, Bureau of Democracy, Human Rights and Labor (DRL) as a discretionary grant program focused on addressing rising anti-Semitism across the OSCE region, specifically in Europe and Central Asia. The core purpose of the program was to support efforts, carried out in partnership with the U.S. Special Envoy to Monitor and Combat Anti-Semitism, that reduce and respond to anti-Semitic activity and the broader conditions that allow it to grow in public life.
The opportunity defined anti-Semitism broadly in terms of how it shows up in real-world harms and social environments. It highlighted concerns including physical violence targeting Jewish individuals or communities, desecration or damage to synagogues, cemeteries, and other religious or cultural sites, and discrimination based on religion. It also emphasized the role of rhetoric and communication in fueling hostility, calling out hateful or inflammatory speech not only in public discourse and traditional media, but also online, where content can spread rapidly and normalize extremist or discriminatory narratives.
Administratively, this was a grant (not a contract) with an award ceiling of up to $1,000,000 per award and an expectation of making about two awards. It fell under CFDA 19.345 and was categorized under a broader funding activity area listed as "Other" (with further clarification referenced in the full notice). The posting was created on March 25, 2019, with an original application deadline of May 3, 2019, indicating a relatively short window for proposal development and submission.
Eligibility was listed as "Others," meaning applicants were not limited to a single standard category in the summary and were expected to consult the full eligibility language in the notice for specifics. In practical terms for DRL opportunities, this often signals openness to a range of capable implementers, such as non-governmental organizations, civil society groups, or other qualified entities with relevant regional experience and programming capacity, though the precise eligible applicant types would be confirmed in the full announcement text.
Overall, the grant opportunity aimed to fund practical, targeted initiatives that counter anti-Semitism as both a security and human rights issue, addressing incidents on the ground as well as the discriminatory narratives and media dynamics that contribute to violence, vandalism, and exclusion. The geographic focus on OSCE member states in Europe and Central Asia framed it as a regional effort aligned with international commitments to tolerance, non-discrimination, and protection of religious freedom and minority rights.Apply for SFOP0005669
