Opportunity Information: Apply for SFOP0010104
The Chemical Security Program (CSP), run under the Cooperative Threat Reduction (CTR) umbrella within the Bureau of International Security and Nonproliferation, is a U.S. government discretionary funding opportunity focused on reducing the global risk posed by chemical weapons. The program is aimed at preventing, detecting, and countering the development, continued maintenance, proliferation, and use of chemical weapons by both state and non-state actors. In practice, CSP supports work that helps partners recognize and interrupt the pathways that enable chemical weapons programs, including the movement of precursor materials, specialized equipment, technical knowledge, and expert personnel.
CSP pursues its mission through a mix of practical capacity-building, analytical work, and specialized efforts. Capacity-building typically means strengthening the ability of foreign government entities and relevant private sector stakeholders to identify chemical security threats, improve controls, and respond effectively when suspicious activity is detected. The program also highlights open source research as a core tool, suggesting an emphasis on using publicly available information to map networks, spot procurement patterns, understand emerging technical trends, and provide actionable insights that can help disrupt illicit activity tied to chemical weapons development or use.
A notable aspect of this opportunity is the breadth of organizations that can apply. Eligible applicants include not-for-profit organizations (such as think tanks and civil society or non-governmental organizations), public and private educational institutions, for-profit organizations, public international organizations and governmental institutions, and federally funded research and development centers. This wide eligibility indicates the program is designed to fund both operational and research-oriented projects, and to draw on a diverse set of capabilities ranging from field training and institutional strengthening to technical analysis and specialized expertise.
Administratively, the opportunity is listed as "Chemical Security Program" with funding opportunity number SFOP0010104 and is associated with CFDA number 19.033. The agency is the Bureau of International Security-Nonproliferation, and the funding instrument type is labeled as "Other," with activity and instrument categories also listed as "Other," which can signal flexible or non-standard award structures depending on the project and applicant type. The original application closing date was January 31, 2024. Individual awards may be as large as $250,000 (the award ceiling), and the program anticipated making around 25 awards, suggesting CSP was seeking a portfolio of multiple projects rather than concentrating funds into a small number of large grants.
Overall, this grant opportunity supports projects that measurably improve the ability of international partners and relevant industries to prevent chemical weapons proliferation and use. Successful proposals would generally align with CSPs emphasis on practical disruption of chemical weapons-enabling networks, whether through training and systems-building, targeted research using open sources, or other specialized initiatives that strengthen detection, prevention, and response capabilities worldwide.Apply for SFOP0010104
