Notice of Intent: Program to End Modern Slavery FY 2023 Grant

This listing is a Notice of Intent, not an open application opportunity: the TIP Office says it is not accepting applications. The described PEMS model is most relevant to locally co-created Intervention Development Research that pairs rigorous qualitative and quantitative research, prevalence measurement, monitoring and evaluation, and survivor-centered, trauma-informed practice with piloting an anti-trafficking intervention. Award amounts, active submission instructions, project period, and formal review criteria are not established in the supplied packet; monitor for a future Statement of Intent or Notice of Funding Opportunity and review the attached notice before making a submission decision.

Plain-English explanation

Plain-English explanation

This listing is a Notice of Intent, not an open application opportunity: the TIP Office says it is not accepting applications. The described PEMS model is most relevant to locally co-created Intervention Development Research that pairs rigorous qualitative and quantitative research, prevalence measurement, monitoring and evaluation, and survivor-centered, trauma-informed practice with piloting an anti-trafficking intervention. Award amounts, active submission instructions, project period, and formal review criteria are not established in the supplied packet; monitor for a future Statement of Intent or Notice of Funding Opportunity and review the attached notice before making a submission decision.

Editorial analysis

What the funder is trying to accomplish

PEMS aims to measurably and substantially reduce human-trafficking prevalence in targeted populations in partner countries and jurisdictions. The TIP Office expresses interest in projects using Intervention Development Research (IDR) to research and pilot programming to prevent and respond to trafficking, with rigorous research methods, prevalence measurement, monitoring, evaluation, learning, evidence-based programming, survivor-centered and trauma-informed approaches, and expanded partnerships.

Editorial analysis

Strong-fit project signals

A concept addresses human-trafficking prevention or response and is designed to contribute to a measurable reduction in trafficking prevalence for a defined target population in a partner-country or jurisdiction context. The work uses IDR: qualitative and quantitative methods to analyze the systems in which trafficking occurs, identify modifiable risk and protective factors, develop a theory of change, and design and pilot an intervention with potential for scale-up or adaptation. Local actors hold active roles across planning, development, and implementation, using co-creation and participatory research rather than limited consultation. The organization can support rigorous research, sound prevalence measurement, strong monitoring and evaluation, and survivor-centered, trauma-informed practice. The organization can meet the stated administrative readiness conditions: SAM.gov and Grants.gov are listed registrations, and a valid UEI is required before an organization selected for award can receive funding.

Editorial analysis

What reviewers may prioritize

The supplied evidence contains no formal review criteria, weighting, or reviewer guidance. Inferred priorities are a credible link between the trafficking problem and prevalence measurement; locally co-created IDR; a theory of change; a pilot intervention; rigorous evaluation of intervention effects; survivor-centered and trauma-informed practice; and potential for adaptation or scale.

What this grant funds

Note: This is a Notice of Intent. An announcement is not related to this notice. The U.S. State Department’ s Office to Monitor and Combat Trafficking in Persons (TIP Office) is not accepting applications at this time. Please review the attached notice for full details.

Background:

The goal of PEMS is to measurably and substantially reduce the prevalence of human trafficking in targeted populations in partner countries and jurisdictions through innovative interventions driven by research, monitoring, evaluation, and learning, and the expansion of partnerships. PEMS-funded efforts conduct scientifically rigorous research to establish evidence on the effects of anti-trafficking programs on the reduction of the prevalence of human trafficking through the advancement of rigorous research methods. This includes sound prevalence measurement; strong monitoring and evaluation practices; evidence-based programming; and the application of survivor-centered and trauma-informed approaches. The U.S. Congress has appropriated $25 million annually since Fiscal Year (FY) 2016 for PEMS, totaling $200 million to date.

The TIP Office is interested in funding projects that utilize Intervention Development Research (IDR) to conduct research and pilot targeted programming to effectively prevent and respond to human trafficking. IDR employs various qualitative and quantitative methodologies to identify the complex systems in which human trafficking occurs, determine modifiable elements of the crime, including risk and protective factors; develop a theory of change; and design and pilot interventions to develop an intervention model that can be scaled-up and/or adapted for other settings. Local partnerships and utilization of methods of co-creation and participatory research are core elements of IDR. Local actors must play an active role in all phases of the project, from planning and development through implementation of the intervention. Please read the full notice attached.
