Grant Description

Global Threat Reduction (GTR) - Unspecified Technical Assistance to Global Threat Reduction; GTR programs are aimed at reducing the threat posed by terrorist organizations or states of concern seeking to acquire weapons of mass destruction (WMD) expertise, materials and equipment.
