Opportunity Information: Apply for SFOP0009000
The Air Quality Management Community of Practice in Maritime Southeast Asia (Funding Opportunity Number SFOP0009000) is a U.S. Department of State initiative, administered by the Bureau of Oceans and International Environmental and Scientific Affairs, focused on strengthening regional collaboration to address air pollution challenges in Maritime Southeast Asia. Structured as a discretionary cooperative agreement, the opportunity supports a single expected award with a maximum funding level (award ceiling) of $440,440. The program falls under the environment funding activity category and is associated with CFDA number 19.017. The opportunity was posted on June 2, 2022, with an original application deadline of August 4, 2022, and eligibility is broadly described as "Others" with further clarification referenced in the full eligibility section of the notice.
At its core, the project aims to create and sustain a regional "community of practice," meaning an organized network where practitioners regularly exchange knowledge, align approaches, and build practical tools together. The community is designed to bring a wide mix of participants into the same ongoing conversation, including air quality experts and technical practitioners, government decision-makers, community groups, and private sector stakeholders. By convening these different actors, the program is meant to bridge gaps between technical air quality work and policy or implementation realities, while also ensuring public-facing and community priorities are reflected in how air quality problems are understood and addressed.
The activities emphasized in the description point to both technical capacity and governance outcomes. On the technical side, the community of practice is expected to generate new ideas and elevate regional performance through information sharing and best-practice development related to air quality monitoring, modeling, forecasting, and data management. This suggests the work may include harmonizing monitoring approaches, improving the quality and usability of data, promoting interoperable data systems, and strengthening the ability of institutions to translate monitoring data into reliable models and forecasts that can support public advisories and policy decisions. On the awareness and knowledge side, the project is intended to expand understanding of air quality issues across participating stakeholders, implying outreach, shared learning, and communication efforts that help decision-makers and the public better interpret air quality information and its health, environmental, and economic impacts.
A key deliverable implied by the opportunity is progress toward stronger air quality management frameworks and the adoption of clean air solutions "across scales." In practice, this points to work that can connect local, city, provincial, and national efforts, helping institutions coordinate strategies that match the geographic realities of air pollution, which often crosses jurisdictional boundaries. The community of practice model is suited to this kind of multi-level coordination because it can support consistent guidance, shared standards, and replicable approaches, while still allowing individual places to tailor interventions to local sources of pollution and governance contexts. Overall, the opportunity is framed as a region-building effort that combines convening power with practical technical improvements, aiming to leave behind not just a one-time set of workshops, but a functioning network that can continue to improve air quality decision-making and accelerate implementation of clean air measures throughout Maritime Southeast Asia.Apply for SFOP0009000
