Haiti: Fiscal Transparency: Objectives: Under this Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) assistance award solicitation, the Embassy will provide a one-time grant to a local or international nongovernmental organization to help Haiti make progress towards meeting the minimum requirements of fiscal transparency by 2021 through a civil society-driven approach. Proposals should address the public on the budget process; with the university sector to address government deficiencies in fiscal transparency and potential solutions; train local organization leaders in fiscal responsibility to stimulate grassroots initiatives towards more involvement of local government in the fiscal transparency process; and include a social media component. Background: This program is part of the Fiscal Transparency Innovation Fund (FTIF) intended to provide assistance to improve fiscal transparency in countries around the world. The FTIF was created in FY 2012 to support government and civil society organization efforts to enhance budget transparency, advance best practices in public financial management, and improve the transparency of natural resource management. Since its inception, the FTIF has provided over USD 31 million to support 75 projects in 58 countries to drive improvement in these areas. The U.S. Department of State's Bureau of Economic and Business Affairs' Office of Monetary Affairs and USAID's Bureau for Economic Growth, Education, and Environment conduct FTIF oversight. Direct funding for individuals, public international organizations, foreign governments, parastatal organizations, educational institutions, or U.S. Government departments and agencies is not available under this announcement.
