Global Gold Mining Project: This Notice of Intent (NOI) is not a request for funding applications. Subject to the availability of funds, USDOL’s Bureau of International Labor Affairs (ILAB) intends to award, through a competitive process, one or more cooperative agreements to organizations to implement a project(s) to develop and implement strategies to reduce child labor and improve working conditions in artisanal and small-scale gold mining (ASGM), including by convening key stakeholders to support the effort. The project will include action at the country level and the global level. In two pilot countries—Ghana and the Philippines—the project will convene a wide range of stakeholders and support actions to (1) strengthen and enforce laws and develop and implement policies and action plans to address child labor and working conditions in ASGM; (2) increase access of ASGM child laborers, their households, and other households vulnerable to child labor to social protection services and programs to improve ASGM mining practices; and (3) develop and implement mechanisms to increase transparency and monitor child labor and working conditions in gold mining supply chains, with a particular focus on ASGM. At the global level, the project will develop networks and promote the sharing of good practices among stakeholders in countries, including but not limited to the two pilot countries, where ASGM is significant. The Employment and Training Administration (ETA)’s Office of Grants Management anticipates publishing the Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) before the end of September 2015 (this date is subject to change). Please refer to: http://www.dol.gov/ilab/grants/ and http://www.dol.gov/ilab/grants/SGAguidelines.htm for general guidelines and examples of previous cooperative agreement applications. This NOI does not include an FOA or any attachments. It only constitutes a notice of USDOL’s intent to publish an FOA at a later date. Interested applicants are encouraged to monitor www.grants.gov for the FOA because this is the method by which it will be made available to the public. No email or paper copies will be provided.
