Opportunity Information: Apply for SFOP0008680
The U.S. Department of State, Bureau of Population, Refugees, and Migration (PRM) announced a discretionary funding opportunity titled "2022 Indonesia, Malaysia, Thailand, Bangladesh, Nepal, India" (Funding Opportunity Number SFOP0008680). The program was released on March 4, 2022, with an original application deadline of April 8, 2022. Awards under this opportunity were to be issued as cooperative agreements, which typically means the government expects substantial involvement during implementation (such as coordination on program design, monitoring, reporting, or other ongoing engagement), rather than a more hands-off grant structure.
The geographic focus of the opportunity covers six countries in South and Southeast Asia: Thailand, Malaysia, Indonesia, Bangladesh, Nepal, and India. The central purpose is to support programs that primarily benefit refugees and asylum seekers across these locations. A key eligibility condition tied to program design is that PRM would only consider proposals in which at least 50 percent of the targeted beneficiaries are refugees and asylum seekers. In practical terms, applicants needed to structure their activities, outreach, and beneficiary selection so that refugees and asylum seekers make up a majority of the people served, rather than being a minor sub-group within a broader vulnerable-populations project.
The opportunity is associated with CFDA number 19.511, which corresponds to PRM humanitarian assistance programming. The funding activity category is listed as "Other," indicating the programmatic scope could span multiple types of humanitarian or protection-related interventions, depending on what PRM described in the full announcement text. While the summary does not specify sectors (for example, protection services, health, education, livelihoods, legal assistance, case management, or psychosocial support), the emphasis is clearly on direct benefit to refugee and asylum seeker populations in the named countries and on meeting the minimum threshold for refugee/asylum-seeker participation in the beneficiary base.
In terms of funding size, the announcement lists an award ceiling of $14,500,000. The field "ExpectedAwards: 0" appears in the source data, which can sometimes reflect how the notice was configured in the system rather than a literal intent to make no awards; it does not provide a reliable count of how many awards were anticipated. Eligibility is shown as "Others" with a note to consult additional eligibility information in the full notice, meaning applicants would have needed to review the complete solicitation to confirm what organizational types could apply (for example, non-governmental organizations, international organizations, or other entities depending on PRM rules for that cycle).
Overall, this funding opportunity was a PRM cooperative agreement solicitation aimed at supporting majority-refugee and asylum-seeker programming in Thailand, Malaysia, Indonesia, Bangladesh, Nepal, and India, with proposals required to demonstrate that at least half of intended beneficiaries fall within those populations and with a maximum potential award amount indicated as $14.5 million.Apply for SFOP0008680
