Opportunity Information: Apply for AFYDE ARDF GR POLECON 2018
The ARDF-Democracy, Human Rights and Governance Program (POL/ECON, U.S. Embassy Yaounde) is a U.S. Department of State grant opportunity administered by the U.S. Mission to Cameroon through the Embassy's Political and Economic Section. It invites proposals for projects in Cameroon that strengthen democracy and protect international human rights, with an emphasis on practical support to both governmental and nongovernmental actors working to promote, defend, and enforce human rights standards. In parallel, it also seeks projects that help citizens participate meaningfully in governance by improving the conditions for periodic elections that are inclusive, accountable, and conducted in a free and fair manner, including efforts that enable people to choose and replace leaders through legitimate electoral processes.
The opportunity is listed under funding opportunity number AFYDE ARDF GR POLECON 2018 and is categorized as a grant (funding instrument type: Grant) under CFDA 19.700. While the activity category is labeled "Other," the program focus is clearly centered on democracy, human rights, and governance outcomes, especially initiatives that expand rights protections and strengthen election-related participation and accountability. The Embassy anticipated making multiple awards, with an expected total of about 15 grants, and an award ceiling of up to $40,000 per grant, suggesting support for relatively small, targeted projects that can demonstrate concrete results within a defined scope.
Eligibility is broadly described as "Others" with additional eligibility details referenced in the full announcement, indicating that a range of organizations may be able to apply, potentially including civil society groups, nongovernmental organizations, community-based organizations, and possibly certain public or quasi-public entities depending on the Embassy's criteria. The notice was created on June 4, 2018, with an original application deadline of July 12, 2018, meaning proposals were expected within a short submission window.
A key condition in the announcement is that awards are contingent on the Embassy receiving ARDF program funding prior to September 30, 2018. In other words, even strong proposals would only be funded if the underlying ARDF funds were approved and disbursed; if the program funding was not authorized, no grants would be issued under this call. This makes the opportunity both competitive and dependent on final budget availability, which applicants would need to factor into planning and timelines.Apply for AFYDE ARDF GR POLECON 2018
