Opportunity Information: Apply for 72052319RFA00002

USAID Mexico issued a discretionary funding opportunity titled "Femicides - Prevention and Response Activity (F-PAR) Civil Society Component" under Funding Opportunity Number 72052319RFA00002. The award is planned as a cooperative agreement, meaning the selected organization would implement the project while working closely with USAID during planning and execution. The opportunity sits in the Law, Justice, and Legal Services category (CFDA 98.001) and was posted on April 29, 2019, with an original application deadline of June 7, 2019. USAID expected to make one award, with a maximum funding level (ceiling) of $1,275,000.

The activity being funded is described as the "Alliances for Analysis and Communication (AAampC) Activity" and is specifically designed as the civil society component of the broader Femicides Prevention and Response (F-PAR) effort. Eligibility is restricted to Mexican non-governmental organizations (NGOs), with additional requirements referenced in the opportunity's Section C. In practical terms, this call is aimed at supporting a locally rooted organization (or potentially a local-led consortium if allowed by the solicitation) that can engage communities, institutions, and public audiences on the prevention of violence against women and the institutional response to femicide.

The core purpose of the F-PAR civil society component is to expand and strengthen civil society participation in three connected areas. First, it aims to support prevention activities related to gender-based violence against women, which typically includes community-level awareness, risk reduction strategies, engagement with local actors, and efforts that encourage early action before violence escalates. Second, it seeks to strengthen CSO litigation skills so that civil society groups can more effectively advocate in front of justice sector institutions. This emphasis suggests a focus on legal empowerment and strategic litigation capacities, such as building stronger case strategies, improving how evidence and arguments are presented, and increasing the effectiveness of legal advocacy tied to women s rights and accountability for gender-based violence. Third, the activity is intended to improve monitoring of the justice sector s performance in preventing and responding to femicide cases, which points to structured oversight and watchdog functions: tracking case progress, documenting procedural gaps, identifying patterns of impunity or delay, and using findings to push for reforms and better institutional practice.

This civil society work is positioned as complementary to an earlier USAID-supported activity awarded in 2018 that operated in Nuevo Leon, specifically in the Monterrey metropolitan area. In other words, while the earlier effort focused on improving state capabilities from within institutions, this opportunity is meant to reinforce those goals from the civil society side by building external pressure, informed advocacy, and public accountability. The broader intended impact is twofold: improving state capabilities to prevent femicides from occurring in the first place, and improving the capacity of state institutions to investigate, prosecute, and respond effectively when femicide cases do occur. By strengthening both prevention and justice response, the activity aims to reduce the conditions that allow femicide to happen and to increase the likelihood of timely, professional, and rights-respecting institutional action afterward.
