Bureau of Democracy Human Rights and Labor AI policy
In short
We found no published State Department or DRL guidance on AI use by applicants or reviewers. DRL's 2026 Proposal Submission Instructions, recent NOFOs and NOFO FAQs do not mention it. Check the specific NOFO and ask the listed DRL contact.
We found no published AI guidance. We checked Bureau of Democracy Human Rights and Labor's application guidance, FAQs, and reviewer pages as of November 9, 2026. Until it publishes a policy, follow the solicitation and your institution's rules, and treat AI-drafted text as your own work that you are responsible for.
This page summarizes published guidance and is not legal advice. Policies change, and a specific solicitation can add its own rules, so confirm against the funding announcement before you apply. See every funder's AI policy.
