1. Summary: In response to the Solicitation for Proposals by the
Office to Monitor and Combat Trafficking (G/TIP),Embassy Astana has
reviewed and vetted three proposals addressing human trafficking in
Kazakhstan. Post has selected one proposal for review and would
welcome the opportunity to discuss and supply additional information
concerning this proposal. The remaining information requested in
reftel is being emailed to G/TIP Program Coordinator for NEA and
SCA, Amy LeMar-Meredith separately.


2. Proposal Summary Information:
Name of Applicant: International Organization for Migration in
Kazakhstan (IOM)
Requested Funding Amount: $548,175
Project Title: Shelter for victims of human trafficking in
Kazakhstan
Project Duration: Two years
Proposal Abstract: The applicant's proposal includes assessment and
establishment of a shelter in one of three cities of Northern
Kazakhstan, conducting two workshops for GOK officials to advocate
NGO grants to sustain the shelter, and development of TIP
information/training materials to educate law enforcement officers
and university faculty and administrators.


3. The three part project will result in significant increase of
victims' assistance, rehabilitation and reintegration programs, and
coordinate and sustain the victim's assistance services with
appropriate government agencies, thereby increasing government's
involvement in this critical area (a shortcoming noted in G/TIP
analysis of anti-TIP activities of the GOK). It will also develop
the capacity of law enforcement involved in the prevention and
prosecution of trafficking crimes and the TIP knowledge base of
civil institutions that educate the population.
