Opportunity Information: Apply for OFOP0002208

The U.S. Embassy in Lilongwe is offering a grant of up to $781,854 through the Fiscal Transparency Innovation Fund, pending funding availability for FY 2024. The goal is to increase transparency in Malawi's extractive sector, especially in how mining revenues affect government borrowing.

The program focuses on making information more accessible about mining licenses and contracts, ownership structures, revenue collection, and national debt. Key objectives include:

- Improving the transparency of natural resource contracts and public debt management. - Reducing corruption by monitoring ownership behind mining operations. - Promoting fair taxation and responsible use of mining revenues with direct benefits to local communities.

By meeting international standards under the Extractive Industries Transparency Initiative, the project aims to reduce investment risk and build investor confidence in Malawi. It also intends to strengthen oversight by developing national debt publication standards and increasing debt-related disclosures.

The broader impact includes improved governance, more informed public and parliamentary scrutiny of borrowing, and encouragement of ethical business practices. Eligible applicants include public and private educational institutions, governmental bodies, and public international organizations. The project can run for up to 24 months.
