Opportunity Information: Apply for SBUR SGWIPF 17 002
The Global Programming Consortium to Advance the Status of Women and Girls is a U.S. government discretionary funding opportunity designed to support international programming that strengthens the rights, opportunities, and overall well-being of women and girls. The opportunity is structured as a cooperative agreement, which generally means the government expects to be actively involved during implementation rather than simply issuing a grant and stepping back. The funding is categorized under "Other" as the activity area, and it is associated with CFDA number 19.801. The administering entity is listed as the Office of the Secretary.
This opportunity is identified by the funding opportunity number SBUR SGWIPF 17 002, with the title "Global Programming Consortium to Advance the Status of Women and Girls." The solicitation was created on April 4, 2017, and the original application closing date was June 5, 2017, indicating it was a time-bound competition with a defined submission window. The maximum funding amount available per award (the award ceiling) is $4,000,000. The source information notes "ExpectedAwards:" but does not provide a number, so the total number of awards anticipated cannot be confirmed from the provided data.
Eligibility is relatively broad and includes both U.S. and non-U.S. entities that can carry out global programming. Eligible applicants include public and state-controlled institutions of higher education, private institutions of higher education, and educational or research institutions more broadly. It also includes U.S. nonprofit organizations, including those with 501(c)(3) status and nonprofits without 501(c)(3) status, as long as they are not institutions of higher education in those categories. In addition, the description explicitly mentions foreign not-for-profits, NGOs, and social enterprises, suggesting the opportunity is open to non-U.S. implementing partners or lead applicants depending on the full solicitation requirements. The inclusion of an "Others" category under eligible applicants further implies that additional organization types may be considered eligible if they meet the program and legal requirements laid out in the full notice.
In practical terms, the opportunity is aimed at forming or supporting a consortium, meaning a coordinated group of organizations that can bring complementary expertise, regional access, and implementation capacity to advance the status of women and girls globally. While the brief description provided does not specify program themes, countries, or required interventions, the title and consortium framing typically point to multi-country or multi-partner initiatives that may combine direct programming, capacity building, research or learning agendas, and coordination across stakeholders. Because it is a cooperative agreement, applicants would normally be expected to demonstrate not only technical capability and credible partnerships, but also readiness to collaborate closely with the funding agency on planning, oversight, and potentially strategic direction during the project period.
Key details at a glance: the opportunity is discretionary, uses a cooperative agreement instrument, is administered under the Office of the Secretary, carries a $4,000,000 award ceiling, and was open for applications in spring 2017 with a June 5, 2017 deadline. The eligible applicant pool spans higher education institutions, U.S. nonprofits with and without 501(c)(3) status, and foreign nonprofits/NGOs/social enterprises, reflecting an intent to fund globally oriented coalitions capable of delivering large-scale, coordinated work to improve outcomes for women and girls.Apply for SBUR SGWIPF 17 002
