Opportunity Information: Apply for PAS SGP FY2020 002
The grant opportunity titled Building National Resilience in a context of Sub-Regional Insecurity (Funding Opportunity Number: PAS SGP FY2020 002) is a discretionary U.S. government grant administered by the U.S. Mission to Togo, specifically through its Public Affairs Section. It is framed around the growing spillover of violent extremist threats from the Sahel into coastal West African countries. The narrative grounding for the program highlights that Togo began to feel this risk more directly after a February 15, 2019 attack on a mobile customs post in Nohao, Burkina Faso, near Togo's Savanes Region, which killed five people, including four customs officers and a Spanish priest. The proximity of Togo's northern Savanes Region to areas of eastern and central-eastern Burkina Faso that have seen rising attacks attributed to violent extremist groups makes this border zone a focal point for prevention-oriented efforts.
The core purpose of the program is to strengthen Togo's resilience to violent extremism by emphasizing "soft" approaches, meaning non-security and non-kinetic prevention strategies rather than military or enforcement operations. The grant is designed to support prevention and countering violent extremism (P/CVE) work through local P/CVE committees that engage communities using messaging, dialogue, and practical actions aimed at addressing the underlying drivers of violent extremism. The approach is explicitly multidisciplinary and collaborative, recognizing that prevention depends on more than security services alone and requires coordinated participation from multiple parts of society.
A key feature of the opportunity is the broad, inclusive model of engagement it promotes. Applicants are expected to incorporate input and participation from a wide range of stakeholders. On the government side, that includes law enforcement, security forces, and relevant ministries. On the non-governmental side, it calls for the meaningful involvement of local communities, youth and women, religious, cultural, and educational leaders, civil society organizations, and the media. The program also encourages engagement with the private sector, reflecting an understanding that economic opportunity, social cohesion, local leadership, credible information ecosystems, and community trust are all important factors in reducing vulnerability to extremist recruitment and influence.
In terms of eligibility, the opportunity is open to applicants from both the United States and Togo. Eligible applicants include registered not-for-profit organizations such as think tanks and civil society or non-governmental organizations with relevant programming experience, as well as individuals. It also welcomes applications from non-profit or governmental educational institutions and from governmental institutions. The funding instrument is a grant, listed under CFDA number 19.040, with an award ceiling of $250,000. The opportunity was created on April 28, 2020, with an original closing date of May 30, 2020. Overall, the grant is aimed at building local and national capacity to prevent violent extremism by strengthening community-based structures, improving coordination across sectors, and supporting credible, locally grounded prevention initiatives in areas most exposed to cross-border insecurity.Apply for PAS SGP FY2020 002
