The United States Agency for International Development (USAID) in Mexico intends to issue a Request for Proposals (RFP) for an anticipated five-year, cost plus fixed-fee completion type contract. The Human Rights Accountability Activity is to build the capacity of Mexico’s human rights institutions to more effectively and accountably respond to and prevent human rights violations - in particular forced disappearances and torture - at both the federal and state levels. Improved capacity to respond will reduce impunity and help to prevent future violations. To achieve this purpose, the activity has three components: ? Component 1: Establish and sustain national oversight, coordination, and implementation mechanisms to deliver Government of Mexico (GOM) commitments under the 2017 General Laws on Torture and Forced Disappearances. ? Component 2: Enhance implementation of the 2017 General Laws on Torture and Forced Disappearances in five priority states. ? Component 3: Decrease the backlog in forensic cases in priority states. USAID intends issuing a draft solicitation within the 15-days period of the synopsis and a final solicitation immediately afterwards.
