Opportunity Information: Apply for ISN ISNCTR 17 005
The funding opportunity titled "ISN CTR FY17 AQM Grants" (Funding Opportunity Number: ISN ISNCTR 17 005) is a discretionary grant program administered by the U.S. Department of State, Bureau of International Security and Nonproliferation (ISN), specifically under its Cooperative Threat Reduction (CTR) activities. The CFDA number associated with the program is 19.033. While the posted record does not include a narrative description of goals, themes, or program priorities (the description field is listed as N/A), the administering bureau and CTR labeling indicate the opportunity likely sits within the State Department's broader nonproliferation and international security assistance portfolio, where cooperative agreements and grants are commonly used to support technical, policy, and capacity-building work related to reducing threats from weapons of mass destruction and associated materials. The "AQM" label is not expanded in the source data, so the specific subject matter cannot be confirmed from the listing alone.
This opportunity allows for multiple federal award mechanisms, including both cooperative agreements and standard grants. A cooperative agreement typically implies substantial federal involvement during performance compared to a traditional grant, so applicants should expect a closer working relationship with the Department of State if selected under that instrument. The funding activity category is listed as "Other" with a note pointing to an explanatory text field for clarification; however, that explanation is not included in the provided data, so the exact activity category cannot be further specified from the record.
Eligibility is broad and spans academic, nonprofit, and private-sector organizations. Eligible applicants include public and state-controlled institutions of higher education, private institutions of higher education, nonprofit organizations with 501(c)(3) status, nonprofit organizations without 501(c)(3) status (as long as they are not institutions of higher education), for-profit organizations other than small businesses, and small businesses. In practical terms, this means universities, research institutions, think tanks, NGOs, and a range of commercial entities may have been able to apply, depending on the specific project requirements that would normally be spelled out in the full announcement package.
The timing window shown in the listing is extremely short. The opportunity was created on April 13, 2017, with an original closing date of April 14, 2017. With only about a day between posting and closing, this may suggest the announcement functioned as a very limited call, a continuation/renewal-related action, a targeted competition, or a posting associated with an already-coordinated solicitation process. The source data does not provide an explanation for the short turnaround, so any interpretation should be treated as informed context rather than a confirmed detail.
In terms of award size and volume, the listing states an expected number of awards of 5. The award ceiling is shown as 0, which usually indicates that the maximum award amount was either not provided in the listing record, was to be determined, or was described elsewhere in the full funding opportunity documents rather than captured in this summary field. Because both the program description and funding ceiling are not populated, the available information does not allow a reliable estimate of typical project budgets, performance periods, or the kinds of deliverables anticipated.
Overall, the public listing provides the administrative basics: the program name, issuing bureau, eligibility categories, instrument types, CFDA number, and expected award count. What it does not provide is the substantive program narrative that would normally outline objectives, scope, geographic focus, technical requirements, evaluation criteria, cost sharing expectations, reporting obligations, and compliance requirements. For anyone trying to understand what projects were actually sought under "ISN CTR FY17 AQM Grants," the key missing piece would be the full notice of funding opportunity or related attachment package that would normally contain those details.Apply for ISN ISNCTR 17 005
