- Description
- The United States Agency for International Development (USAID), Regional Development Mission for Asia (RDMA), Governance and Vulnerable Populations (GVP) Office requires support to establish and manage a flexible mechanism that will provide technical assistance, training, material, and other resources as needed to a broad range of civil society organizations and stakeholders working to promote peace building and stable democratic governance in the Kingdom of Thailand. The overall development goal of this program is to foster constructive civil society engagement with the Royal Thai Government (RTG) as a means to building consensus for democratic political processes and mitigating extremism. USAID/RDMA envisions a program obligated over three to five years which has three coordinated and mutually supportive components to reach the overall development goal. It includes components to (a) enhance capacities of key independent agencies to provide effective government oversight, (b) strengthen the capacity of Thai civil society organizations (CSO) and media to serve as checks and balances for political processes and public policy, and (c) support civil peace-building efforts and diminish the potential for radicalization and escalation of violent conflict in southern Thailand. The program emphasizes capacity building of Thai CSOs and the use of Thai service providers when possible. USAID/RDMA envisions a combination of technical assistance, training and grants (for either US NGOs or Thai CSOs) to ensure rapid response to emerging opportunities and have ample capabilities to achieve objectives.
