Opportunity Information: Apply for INL 17GR0008 INLAPAFGHANISTAN 01 30 2017
The Afghanistan Legal Education Alumni Coordination and Scholar Project is a U.S. Department of State grant opportunity administered by the Bureau of International Narcotics and Law Enforcement Affairs (INL). It is designed to strengthen and extend the impact of INL's existing legal education efforts connected to Afghanistan by staying engaged with program alumni over time and by creating additional advanced academic opportunities in the United States. The overall aim is to support the development of a stronger pipeline of Afghan justice professionals by improving access to educational opportunities, reinforcing practical legal skills, and encouraging critical thinking through more interactive, skills-based teaching approaches.
A central piece of the project is alumni coordination and sustained follow-up. The selected implementer would be expected to maintain individualized and consistent contact with INL legal education alumni in order to track their career progression and professional milestones. That includes monitoring changes such as new job placements, promotions, professional recognition, or other notable developments that show how alumni are advancing within the justice sector or related fields. This tracking function is not just for recordkeeping; it is meant to help INL and partners understand outcomes, identify needs, and provide targeted support that helps alumni remain connected to professional pathways.
Another major component is building and strengthening a network that links alumni to each other, to other INL legal education programs, and to potential job opportunities. The project emphasizes collaboration across the broader ecosystem that INL supports, including Afghan public and private universities, U.S. law schools, and legal professionals. In practical terms, this network-building focus suggests structured coordination activities that can surface employment leads, foster mentorship and professional relationships, and connect alumni to institutions and programs that can help them continue developing as justice practitioners and leaders.
In addition to alumni support and networking, the project calls for the development of a visiting graduate-level scholar program at one or more U.S.-accredited law schools. This scholar program element is intended to create a formal opportunity for advanced study or academic engagement in the United States, presumably to deepen expertise, expose participants to U.S. legal education methodologies, and strengthen professional and institutional linkages between Afghan legal education stakeholders and U.S. law schools. The description indicates flexibility in implementation across one school or multiple schools, but it clearly anchors the activity within accredited U.S. legal education institutions.
