Eligibility is open to international non-profit and for-profit organizations.

When sub-awarding or sub-contracting with other entities, the responsibilities of each entity must be clearly defined in the proposal. The applicants must submit proof of their non-profit status or proof of for-profit registration/business license with their proposal submission (e.g. proof of 501(c) (3) status, Pakistan NGO license, business registration license). Applications that do not include proof of non-profit status or for-profit business license will not be considered for an award. Individuals are not eligible for an award under this NOFO. U.S.-based or registered organizations should provide proof of registration to operate in Pakistan or have a documented agreement with a partner organization registered to operate in Pakistan. Please refer to Section D for funding restrictions.
