Opportunity Information: Apply for AF GAB PE ARDF FY23
The U.S. Embassy in Gaborone, under the U.S. Department of State, is offering a grant opportunity focused on strengthening accountable, transparent, and democratic governance in Botswana ahead of the country s 2024 elections. The core idea is to fund the creation of an independent online resource that ordinary Batswana citizens, journalists, and independent election observers can use to quickly find reliable, up to date information about political parties, political leaders, and election related developments. The program is framed as a practical way to expand public access to credible civic and political information, which in turn supports more informed participation and stronger public oversight of leaders and institutions.
A central deliverable envisioned under this opportunity is an extensive, regularly updated database of political information that brings together key facts about parties and leaders as well as their stated platforms and positions on major national issues. The grant description specifically highlights topics such as health, economic development, education, unemployment, and conservation, but the broader expectation is that the resource would help the public compare party priorities and track what leaders say and do. Alongside the database function, the project is also intended to support transparent access to election related reporting, meaning the platform should be useful during the election period for monitoring news, developments, and other information relevant to voters and observers.
The opportunity is being offered as a grant, with a maximum award amount (award ceiling) of $350,000, and the Embassy expects to make one award. Eligible applicants include nonprofit organizations with or without U.S. 501(c)(3) status (as long as they are not institutions of higher education), private institutions of higher education, and individuals. The funding opportunity is listed under the State Department s U.S. Mission to Botswana, and the funding activity category is labeled as "Other," with additional clarification referenced in the full announcement text.
The opportunity was created on August 10, 2023. The original closing date is listed as August 9, 2024, with a note indicating a timeline of 30 days from posting, so applicants should rely on the official posting and instructions to confirm the real submission window and any updates. The opportunity number is AF GAB PE ARDF FY23, and the assistance listing reference is CFDA 19.225. Overall, this grant is aimed at building a publicly accessible, independent, and credible information tool that improves transparency around parties, leaders, and governance and makes it easier for people in Botswana to stay informed during a critical election cycle.Apply for AF GAB PE ARDF FY23
