and geographic areas) in Senegal.

Please carefully follow all instructions below.

Priority Region:
Senegal Program Objectives:
The U. S. Embassy in Dakar works with partner organizations on a number of projects to advance shared objectives of a stable and prosperous Senegal.

One way is through the Trans-Sahara Counterterrorism Partnership (TSCTP).

TSCTP is the U. S. Government’s primary multi-year interagency vehicle to cooperate with partner countries in the Sahel and the Maghreb to strengthen civilian, military, and law enforcement capacity to counter terrorism and the spread of violent extremism.

The U. S. Department of State’s Bureau of African Affairs through U. S. Embassy Dakar will consider proposals to receive TSCTP funding for an analytical report based on a quantitative survey into the CVE threat landscape in Senegal.

Survey research objectives include (but are not limited to):
- Are individuals in the regions of Dakar (to include the suburbs), Kolda, Sedhiou, Ziguinchor, Tambacounda, Kedougou, Matam, and Kaolack vulnerable to recruitment by extremist groups? - What are these individuals’ attitudes towards violent extremism (VE) messaging? Have they been exposed to VE messaging? If so, what is the content, source, and medium? - Is there a difference in potential vulnerability between individuals in the Dakar region compared to those in rural areas? - Is there a difference in potential vulnerability between individuals with limited education compared to those with university degrees? - What are the sources of resiliency to VE in Senegal? Submission Dates and Times Monday, July 22, 2019 at 17:30 All application materials must be submitted by email to DakarNOFO@state.gov This notice is subject to availability of funding.

Department of State reserves the right to fund any or none of the proposals submitted and reserves the right to reduce, revise, or increase the budget in accordance with the needs of the project and the availability of funds.
