FY2008 PRM Funding Opportunity Announcement for NGO Programs in Colombia and the Andes Region Benefiting Refugees and Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs): PRM provides assistance to Colombian refugees in the Andean region as well as the first 90 days of emergency assistance to IDPs in Colombia (mid and long-term assistance to IDPs is provided by USAID). Priority countries in the Andean region include Colombia, Ecuador, Costa Rica, Venezuela, and Panama. PRM funding available for these projects generally ranges between $100,000 and $750,000. Each project will be funded for a period not to exceed 12 months. Project objectives should therefore be achievable within a 12-month time frame. Proposals must list other sources from which you are seeking or have already obtained funding, such as the UN High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR), the host government, other US government agencies, and international donors, including funding and in-kind contributions from your own organization. Priority sectors for PRM's assistance projects include the provision of emergency shelter, direct health care (including psycho-social support), water and sanitation, food and non-food items related to the emergency phase of displacement, and emergency employment income generation and training for persons displaced by armed conflict in Colombia. PRM encourages assistance to those communities that are disproportionately affected by displacement, such as those with Afro-Colombian and indigenous populations. We will therefore give extra consideration to proposals which design programs for these IDPs in particular. In addition, we would consider favorably proposals for assistance in geographic areas which are underserved by other humanitarian assistance organizations. We will pay particular attention to proposals which address health-care needs in rural or IDP-concentrated areas. PRM will accept proposals from any qualified international organization (IO) or non-governmental organization (NGO); however, given budgetary constraints, priority will be given to proposals from organizations that can demonstrate:(a) proven track record in providing the assistance proposed;(b) history of successful partnership with PRM;(c) evidence of coordination with UNHCR, other relief organizations, and development organizations; and (d) appropriate targeting of beneficiaries in coordination with UNHCR and other relevant organizations.
