[liberationtech] State/DRL Internet freedom solicitations posted

[Riley, Chris M]

Hello LibTech community,

I wanted to let you all know that the Internet freedom team at State/DRL has posted our annual open call for statements of interest (SOI) on global Internet freedom programming.

This year, we've changed things up a little bit. We are running two separate proceedings: one an annual call for digital safety, advocacy, and research projects, and the other an 'annual program statement', or APS, for technology development projects. The APS means that SOIs for technology focused projects may be submitted at any time. We will have four quarterly review dates, listed in the notice, at which we will review the SOIs collected to date and invite proposals from those approved by the review committee.

Here are the links to humanrights.gov; the solicitations are also available at grants.gov and grantsolutions.gov.

Technology-focused projects: http://www.state.gov/j/drl/p/207061.htm
Digital safety, advocacy, research: http://www.state.gov/j/drl/p/207063.htm

Please feel welcome to ask Betsy Bramon or me any procedural questions you may have. We won't be able to discuss the merits or substance of any prospective proposals/SOIs, however.

Thank you very much, and we are looking forward to your submissions!

Sincerely,

Internet Freedom Programs at State/DRL {Chris Riley, Betsy Bramon}
