U.S. Embassy Lome, of the U.S. Department of State, announces an open competition for organizations to submit applications to carry out a program to develop a preventative curriculum approach to counter violent extremism through education in Togo.
Togo, despite its proximity to countries affected by violent extremism, is one West African country that has experienced relative peace and security, until recently.
The escalation in violence in Burkina Faso has spread to neighboring countries, with Togo and Benin recording their worst Global Terrorist Index (GTI) scores on record. According to country officials, as of today, violent extremist attacks have led to 40 military casualties and more than 100 civilians were killed and 2,000 Togolese have taken refuge outside the country.
The need to carry out a curriculum development program to address the escalation in violence arose during the Togolese government’s validation workshop of the National Strategy for the Prevention of Violent Extremism (SNAPLEV), where it was noted that prevention through education (including education in prisons) was totally neglected in Togo. This program should fill that gap and should be fully in line with the spirit of Togo’s national strategy.
The main objective of this NOFO is to leverage and highlight U.S. expertise and the growing U.S.-Togo relationship to help launch the teaching of prevention of violent extremism in schools and prisons through the development of a teaching manual for schools and the establishment of training and awareness clinics for prisons in Togo.

Kremlin-backed disinformation and propaganda have destabilized democratic processes and economic welfare and development worldwide, affecting Ukraine, Belarus, and Eurasia in particular. Recognizing the lack of scientific consensus on the specific factors that contribute to susceptibility to Russian disinformation and the lack of consensus on the best ways to counter such disinformation, especially following the full-scale invasion of Ukraine, the objective of this program is to equip research communities, government actors, and civil society with a shared understanding of ways to increase Russia’s target audiences’ resilience and reduce vulnerability to Russian disinformation.
Primary Target Audience: Foreign government officials, think tanks, universities, civil society organizations, independent media and journalists, and social media influencers.
As relevant and appropriate, research products could be disseminated to additional relevant audiences (to be determined jointly by GEC and the implementer for each research product) within the priority region that are vulnerable to foreign propaganda and disinformation. Working closely with GEC, the recipient will research, release, and measure the effectiveness of the research products released within this project. A minimum of seven published research products distributed through appropriate channels are expected during this award. The first should be released within 3-6 months of the signing of the award, followed by quarterly or more frequent products throughout the award.
Below are illustrative examples of the kinds of outputs that GEC projects may develop:
- Reports on threat actors’ audiences, as well as tactics and techniques for disseminating and amplifying propaganda and disinformation. Baseline research release due 3-6 months after the start of the project, followed by quarterly research products.
- Workshops, meetings, or summits convening civil society and government communicators.
- Trainings or workshops building the capacity of journalists and/or influencers.
- Content developed and disseminated for communications campaigns.
- News articles and exposés about disinformation.
