Opportunity Information: Apply for SFOP0010032
The Global Cyber and Digital Policy Training opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number SFOP0010032) is a U.S. Department of State grant led by the Bureau of Cyberspace and Digital Policy (CDP). It is a discretionary funding opportunity offered through a cooperative agreement, meaning the Department of State expects to have an active role in shaping or supporting the project as it is carried out, rather than simply issuing funds and stepping back. The overall purpose is to partner with a capable organization that can design practical training curricula and deliver hands-on instruction that strengthens responsible cybersecurity and digital policy capacity internationally.
At its core, the program is aimed at building specialized, technical, in-person training for key stakeholders involved in cyber and digital policy. The primary target audience is government officials from developing countries, though participation is not strictly limited to them. The announcement also anticipates engagement with personnel connected to regional and multilateral institutions, reflecting a recognition that cyber and digital policy is often coordinated across borders and through international organizations. The intent is not general awareness training, but capacity building that helps participants develop and implement sound approaches to cybersecurity and digital governance in their own national and institutional contexts.
Training activities are expected to occur both in the United States and in other countries, indicating a mix of U.S.-based programs and in-country or regional delivery. While the program is global in scope and intended to serve developing-country participants from every region, the notice specifies that a portion of the funding is reserved for trainings that benefit the Africa region. That set-aside suggests an emphasis on ensuring meaningful program delivery and impact for African participants and institutions as part of the broader worldwide effort.
Financially, the opportunity has an award ceiling of $2,600,000 and anticipates making a single award, so one organization will likely be selected to run the overall effort. The CFDA number associated with the program is 19.665, and eligibility is listed broadly as "Others" with additional eligibility details referenced in the full announcement. The opportunity was created on August 19, 2023, with an original closing date of September 18, 2023. Overall, the grant is designed to support a structured, curriculum-driven training program that equips developing-country stakeholders with the technical and policy tools needed to advance responsible cybersecurity and digital policy domestically and through regional or multilateral cooperation.Apply for SFOP0010032
