This opportunity funds expert advisory and mentoring support to specialized anti-organized crime and corruption departments in Bosnia and Herzegovina. The selected individual or experts will work with prosecutors, judges, and investigators in the Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina and Republika Srpska to strengthen prosecutorial methodology, case prioritization, and legal reform efforts.

Go / No-Go Memo

INL announces a funding opportunity for qualified individuals to provide expert advisory and mentoring support to specialized anti-organized crime and corruption departments in Bosnia and Herzegovina, covering both the Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina and Republika Srpska. Criminal networks in Bosnia and Herzegovina have documented links to Western Hemisphere cartels that launder drug proceeds and shield corrupt officials, directly threatening U.S. security and economic interests. Bosnia and Herzegovina sits on the Balkan Route, a key corridor for narcotics, weapons, and migrant smuggling.The selected expert or experts will strengthen prosecutorial capacity within the Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina's Specialized Department for Corruption and Organized Crime, known as POSKOK, and its Republika Srpska counterpart by delivering structured advisory sessions, participating in legal reform working groups, and providing case-based mentoring to prosecutors, judges, and investigators.

Key objectives include strengthening prosecutorial methodology aligned with the Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina 2014 Law on the Suppression of Corruption and Organized Crime, and developing a structured case prioritization framework to help departments manage complex, high-level caseloads and identify cases with a U.S. nexus.

It is intended for eligible U.S.-based institutions and organizations that can carry out clinical trial research.

This is a U.S.-based clinical trial research opportunity focused on dental, oral, and craniofacial behavioral interventions, so it has limited strategic relevance for IFRC or National Societies. Eligibility is restricted to specific U.S. applicant types, and the source does not suggest an implementation or partnership route for international humanitarian actors.

U.S. Dept. of Treasury RESTORE Act Program

This grant program funds state governments to establish one or more Centers of Excellence through competitive subawards to nongovernmental entities and consortia, including institutions of higher education, in the Gulf Coast Region. The centers will support science, technology, and monitoring related to coastal and deltaic sustainability, ecosystem research, offshore energy, sustainable and resilient growth, and Gulf of Mexico observation and mapping. The expected outcome is the creation of research and monitoring capacity that advances coastal resilience and related regional development objectives.

This is a U.S. Gulf Coast research grant primarily for state governments and their subawards to nongovernmental entities and consortia, including universities. It has no clear humanitarian or Movement participation pathway, and the source information is not sufficient to support a stronger IFRC or National Society role.
