INL plays a vital role in the development and synchronization of U.S. international counter-drug and anti-crime assistance. Since 2003, the U.S. Government, including INL, has been engaged in efforts to reconstitute the components of the Iraqi criminal justice system (police, judiciary and corrections) as a means of promoting security, stability, and respect for the rule of law, while creating an environment conducive to democracy, good governance, and economic development. The three criminal justice system components are vitally interconnected and an effective criminal justice system exists only when all three are properly functioning. A common goal of all of INL's programs in Iraq is to assist in the development of an Iraqi criminal justice system that effectively maintains law and order and is sufficiently fair and humane that Iraqis turn to it, rather than to violent militias or other criminal groups, to seek safety, resolve disputes, and obtain justice. In the Fall of 2010, INL will be initiating several new programs, intended to build upon the results achieved to date from pre-existing programs. Those new programs include the programs identified in this RFA.TARGET THEMES OVERVIEWINL invites interested organizations to submit proposals detailing program concepts and capacity to manage projects addressing the Target Themes set forth in Appendix A.
