Bureau of Justice Assistance·Government

This grant supports rural local law enforcement agencies and prosecutors’ offices to prevent, respond to, and reduce violent crime. Funding may cover personnel, tactics, training, equipment, technology, and data analytics to improve crime analysis, identify hotspots, and allocate resources more effectively. The expected outcome is a measurable reduction in violent crime in rural jurisdictions.

Go / No-Go Memo

This opportunity looks relevant, but the strongest path is likely through a partner or consortium.

This is a U.S. law-enforcement grant for rural violent crime reduction, not a humanitarian, health, or development opportunity aligned with IFRC or National Society programming. Eligibility is limited to government entities and tribal organizations, and the source does not indicate a realistic role for Movement organizations.

This is a notice of funding opportunity (NOFO) for the BJA FY 2026 Rural Violent Crime Reduction Initiative. This opportunity supports local law enforcement in rural jurisdictions to prevent, respond to, and reduce violent crime. The goal is to equip rural law enforcement agencies and prosecutors’ offices with the resources necessary to implement a violent crime reduction strategy to solve a specific violent crime challenge utilizing one or more of the following approaches: • Personnel, Tactics, Training, and Equipment to Reduce Violent Crime.

This includes updated technology and tools, including records management systems, vehicles, vests, and firearms that assist agencies in responding to and preventing violent crime. This also includes hiring additional personnel such as a prosecutor or criminologist to strategically address persistent crimes, early case management, and increased police training. • Technological Enhancements to Reduce Violent Crime. Technology takes the form of hardware, software, communications systems, intelligence centers, and equipment.

Technology systems can create the infrastructure for actionable intelligence, enhance officer safety, support efficient operations, shorten case filing timelines, and manage risk. • Data Analytics and Intelligence. Enhance crime analysis capabilities through personnel, training, and software enhancements to identify crime hotspots, predict high-risk times and locations, and allocate resources more effectively to prevent violent incidents before they occur. • Other approaches that align with the Department’s priorities and provide a significant reduction in violent crime rates.

DoW Military Burn, Patient-Centered Research Award

Teresa M Parker-Reeser Grants Officer

This funding opportunity supports phased cooperative agreement research to plan and implement behavioral and social intervention clinical trials related to dental, oral, or craniofacial conditions. The UG3 phase funds trial planning activities, including protocol development, data management, and operational readiness, followed by a UH3 phase for conducting investigator-initiated intervention research. 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.

Assisting Specialty Crop Exports: Low Oxygen Storage and Packaging Systems for U.S. Tree Nuts with Phytosanitary Traceability

Kendra Arrington Grantor

This cooperative agreement funds work to develop technically and economically viable low-oxygen storage and packaging systems for U.S. tree nuts that can help meet phytosanitary requirements while preserving product quality. The focus is on creating verifiable, preferably traceable approaches for maintaining and documenting low-oxygen conditions during storage and packaging for exporters and shippers. The expected outcome is improved export readiness for specialty crops through better pest control verification and reduced reliance on fumigation or freezing.

This is a U.S.-focused agricultural research/cooperative agreement on specialty crop export systems, with no clear humanitarian, health, or disaster-response role for IFRC or National Societies. Eligibility is only stated as 'Others' and the source gives insufficient evidence of a realistic Movement participation pathway.

DeepRAP: Deep Reasoning, Abstraction & Planning towards trustworthy Cognitive AI Systems

European Commission

This opportunity funds research and innovation projects developing cognitive AI systems with deep reasoning, abstraction, and planning capabilities. It is intended for consortia or single legal entities established in a Member State or Associated Country, and the funded work should produce trustworthy AI methods and demonstrate them in a cognitive AI system reaching TRL4.

This is a Europe-based Horizon EIC Pathfinder research call for AI system development, so it has limited direct relevance for IFRC or National Societies. The eligibility is oriented to research entities, SMEs, start-ups, and similar legal entities in Member States or Associated Countries, with no clear humanitarian implementation pathway.
