Opportunity Information: Apply for INL19GR00020 INLEA MOOTCOURT 020619
The Jessup Moot Court Competition in Moldova grant (Funding Opportunity Number INL19GR00020) is a discretionary U.S. Department of State award administered by the Bureau of International Narcotics and Law Enforcement Affairs (INL) under CFDA 19.703. It is designed to support a single implementing organization that can strengthen legal education and professional development in Moldova by using the Philip C. Jessup International Law Moot Court Competition as a practical, skills-based training platform. The overarching aim is to complement INL's ongoing Criminal Justice Systems programming in Moldova by expanding access to continuing education opportunities for Moldovan justice professionals and future legal practitioners, with a clear emphasis on practical lawyering skills, critical thinking, and interactive teaching methods rather than purely lecture-based instruction.
At the center of the project is the development of a robust national Jessup pipeline. The selected grantee would be expected to provide rigorous training for all Jessup coaches in Moldova so they can effectively teach, prepare, and mentor student teams. The program is meant to build coaching capacity and consistency across institutions, ensuring that the knowledge and methods introduced through the program can be replicated and sustained in future cycles. Alongside coach development, the project must organize and support Jessup teams of Moldovan law students from both public and private universities, helping standardize preparation and improve performance through structured training, coaching, and mentoring.
The opportunity also requires implementation of Jessup-related training and coaching activities at a minimum of four Moldovan universities (public and private), which signals that the grant is intended to have a national footprint rather than benefiting only one institution. Beyond training at the university level, the grantee must coordinate a national Jessup competition in Moldova in full compliance with official Jessup rules and regulations. This includes the operational aspects of running a national round (planning, scheduling, adherence to competition procedures, and overall event management) while ensuring the competition aligns with the standards expected by the international Jessup organization.
A final major deliverable is continued coaching and logistical support for at least one Moldovan team to represent the country in the Jessup international rounds in Washington, D.C. This implies not only preparation support (legal research, writing, oral advocacy practice) but also practical coordination assistance tied to participation in the international competition. In short, the grant uses Jessup as a structured vehicle to develop advocacy skills, deepen engagement with international law, and promote modern training approaches that can elevate legal education and professional competency in Moldova.
The total funding available is up to $400,000 (award ceiling), with one expected award. The opportunity was posted on February 6, 2019, and originally closed on April 8, 2019. Eligibility is listed broadly as "Others" with additional clarification referenced in the funding notice, indicating that the Department of State anticipated applications from organizations with demonstrated capability to manage legal training programs, academic competition support, and cross-institution coordination, rather than limiting eligibility to a narrow applicant type.Apply for INL19GR00020 INLEA MOOTCOURT 020619
