- Description
- ARTISANAL GOLD MINING - ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REDUCTION PROGRAM The United States Agency for International Development in Colombia (USAID/Colombia) is soliciting responses to a Request for Proposals to support the Government of Colombia (GOC) in reducing the environmental impacts of small scale gold mining, with special emphasis on eliminating the use of mercury, and recuperating degraded areas left by gold mining. The successful implementation of the program will result in improved, law-abiding mining operations in the target geographies. This five-year project is estimated at approximately $20 million and includes an activity (sub-awards) fund of $10,500,000 of the total budget. The program will build on the results and processes initiated under the mining component of the USAID/BIOREDD+ program. Strong participation of the private sector is expected, as well as involvement of the relevant counterparts in the GOC at local, regional and national levels. Artisanal and Small-scale Miners (ASM) in selected municipalities of Antioquia and Choco are the main target communities for this program.
