It will do this through the "Improved Public Policy Discourse" request for applications (RFA) by supporting one or more competitively awarded cooperative agreements to International and/or Georgian NGOs. Projects will enhance dialogue between the government and civil society through failitating the engagement of think tanks, the media and other nongovernmental institutions in conducting issue-based analysis and sharing information and approaches with the Government of Georgia and in the public space. The purpose of Amendment 2 to RFA-114-09-000002 is to clarify that the term "electronic submission" means preparation of the application per RFA instructions and submission of the application via email to mchelidze@usaid.gov or rcocaucasus@usaid.gov.
