Development Through Regional Cooperation: The project will focus on creating a dialogue space where civil society groups from different countries of Central Asia can discuss issues relevant to their everyday work, share information, collaborate in training and networking, and conduct joint advocacy activities. Specifically, the central purpose of this project is to strengthen and/or build capacity of civil society organizations (CSOs) in the Central Asian region, so that they can effectively participate in a dialogue with their respective government counterparts on all aspects of national and regional democratic debate and policy-making. The regional platform created under this regional project will be available for information exchange and networking for CSOs from Afghanistan, Pakistan and other countries of the South Asia region.

Additional Information on Eligibility
All qualified local organizations are eligible to apply. USAID encourages applications from local organizations. USAID is particularly interested in applications which include coalitions or other partnership arrangements among local organizations that draw on each organization's unique skills. Assistance provided under this program is intended to develop and complement rather than to supplant local initiatives and resources. USAID will not accept applications from individuals. All applicants must be a legally recognized organizational entity under applicable law. The following types of organizations may apply for funding under this RFA: (1) Local NGOs To be eligible for this program, Local NGO applicants must: 1. Be a local Non-Governmental Organization organized under the laws of the cooperating country or under the laws of a country in the region of the proposed activity; 2. Have its principal place of business in the cooperating country or region; 3. Be managed by a governing body, the majority of whom are citizens or lawful permanent residents of the cooperating country or region; and 4. Be able to provide official documentation of their formal legal status as an NGO in the host country or in a country in the region. (2) Local For-Profit or Commercial Organizations Local private for-profit organizations may apply for funding under this RFA. Foreign government-owned parastatal organizations from countries that are ineligible for assistance under the FAA or related appropriations acts are ineligible. Potential for-profit applicants should note that, pursuant to 22 CFR 226.81, the payment of fee/profit to the prime recipient under grants and cooperative agreements is prohibited. However, if a prime recipient has a (sub)-contract with a for-profit organization for the acquisition of goods or services (i.e., if a buyer-seller relationship is created), fee/profit for the (sub)-contractor is authorized. In addition, local private for-profit organizations shall meet the following: 1. Be a local for-profit Organization organized under the laws of the cooperating country or under the laws of a country in the region of the proposed activity; 2. Have its principal place of business in the cooperating country or region; 3. Be managed by a governing body, the majority of whom are citizens or lawful permanent residents of the cooperating country or region; and 4. Be able to provide official documentation of their formal legal status as in the host country or in a country in the region. (3) Local Colleges and Universities Local colleges and universities may apply for funding under this RFA. USG and USAID regulations generally treat colleges and universities as NGOs, rather than governmental organizations; hence, both public and private colleges and universities are eligible. In addition, Local Colleges and Universities shall meet the following: 1. Be a Local College and University organized under the laws of the cooperating country or under the laws of a country in the region of the proposed activity; 2. Have its principal place of business in the cooperating country or region; 3. Be managed by a governing body, the majority of whom are citizens or lawful permanent residents of the cooperating country or region; and 4. Be able to provide official documentation of their formal legal status in the host country or in a country in the region.
