What the grant funds

NOTE: This is a Notice of Intent. An announcement is not related to this notice. We are not accepting applications at this time. Subject to the availability of funds, USDOL’s Bureau of International Labor Affairs (ILAB) intends to award, through a competitive process, one cooperative agreement to an organization(s) to reduce child labor, forced labor, and other forms of labor exploitation in the chile pepper and tomato sectors in Mexico. The project will promote worker-focused capacity building to strengthen worker voice, and it will increase the use of mechanisms to protect workers in the chile pepper and tomato sectors of Baja California, Baja California Sur, and Chihuahua. The Employment and Training Administration (ETA)’s Office of Grants Management anticipates publishing a Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) around September 9 and intends to make awards December 9 (these dates are subject to change). Please refer to: http://www.dol.gov/ilab/grants/ and https://www.dol.gov/agencies/ilab/resources/grants for general guidelines and examples of previous cooperative agreement applications. This notice does not include an FOA or any attachments. It only constitutes a notice of USDOL’s intent to publish an FOA at a later date. Interested applicants are encouraged to monitor www.grants.gov for the FOA because, if an FOA is published, grants.gov is the method by which the FOA will be made available to the public. No email or paper copies of any FOA will be provided. Additional Information URL: http://www.dol.gov/ilab/
