AdditionalInformationOnEligibility: See Notice Of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) for full eligibility criteria.
Description: Burma produces the second largest amount of poppy in the world, second only to Afghanistan. With drug production increasing steadily since 2006, drug use is also on the rise, negatively impacting Burmese society and stifling its development. As such, drug demand reduction efforts are an important element of the Government of Burma&#226;&#128;&#153;s counternarcotics efforts. INL seeks to work with the Government of Burma, the multilateral community, and the NGO community to reduce drug use in Burma. To address this goal, INL will support public education programs that raise awareness of the dangers of drug abuse or provide healthy alternatives to potential drug users as well as programs that meet the needs of people addicted to illicit narcotics. INL seeks to address these goals by providing grants to a limited number of qualified organizations that can address these goals in concrete ways.
