Trans-Sahara Counterterrorism Partnership (TSCTP) Countering Violent Extremism (CVE) Project- Senegal: A. PROGRAM DESCRIPTION The U.S. Embassy in Dakar of the U.S. Department of State announces an open competition for organizations to submit applications to carry out a program to launch a quantitative survey-based study into the CVE threat landscape and areas of vulnerability (key demographic and geographic areas) in Senegal. Please carefully follow all instructions below. Priority Region: Senegal Program Objectives: The U.S. Embassy in Dakar works with partner organizations on a number of projects to advance shared objectives of a stable and prosperous Senegal. One way is through the Trans-Sahara Counterterrorism Partnership (TSCTP). TSCTP is the U.S. Government's primary multi-year interagency vehicle to cooperate with partner countries in the Sahel and the Maghreb to strengthen civilian, military, and law enforcement capacity to counter terrorism and the spread of violent extremism. The U.S. Department of State's Bureau of African Affairs through U.S. Embassy Dakar will consider proposals to receive TSCTP funding for an analytical report based on a quantitative survey into the CVE threat landscape in Senegal. Survey research objectives include (but are not limited to): - Are individuals in the regions of Dakar (to include the suburbs), Kolda, Sedhiou, Ziguinchor, Tambacounda, Kedougou, Matam, and Kaolack vulnerable to recruitment by extremist groups? - What are these individuals' attitudes towards violent extremism (VE) messaging? Have they been exposed to VE messaging? If so, what is the content, source, and medium? - Is there a difference in potential vulnerability between individuals in the Dakar region compared to those in rural areas? - Is there a difference in potential vulnerability between individuals with limited education compared to those with university degrees? - What are the sources of resiliency to VE in Senegal?
