AdditionalInformationOnEligibility: Eligible applicants include any commercial, international, educational, or non-profit organization, including any faith-based, community-based, or public international organization(s), capable of successfully improving working conditions for foreign migrant workers in high-risk industries in Malaysia.  Lack of past experience with U.S. Department of Labor (USDOL) cooperative agreements, grants, or contracts does not bar eligibility.
Description: This Notice of Intent (NOI) is not a request for funding applications. Subject to the availability of funds, USDOL, Bureau of International Labor Affairs, will award a cooperative agreement for a technical assistance project to improve working conditions for foreign migrant workers in high-risk industries in Malaysia. Specifically, the project will focus on improved support and outreach to foreign migrant workers and to relevant advocacy and worker organizations to increase their ability to more effectively pursue improvements in working conditions. The Employment and Training Administration (ETA)&#146;s Office of Grants Management anticipates publishing the Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) in Fiscal Year 15. Please refer to: http://www.dol.gov/ilab/grants/ and http://www.dol.gov/ilab/grants/SGAguidelines.htm for general guidelines and examples of previous cooperative agreement applications. This NOI does not include an FOA or any attachments. It only constitutes a notice of USDOL&#146;s intent to publish an FOA at a later date. Interested applicants are encouraged to monitor www.grants.gov for the FOA because this is the method by which it will be made available to the public. No email or paper copies will be provided.
