Opportunity Information: Apply for DOS PDS MBA APS FY23 01
The U.S. Embassy in Eswatini, through its Public Diplomacy Section (PD) within the U.S. Department of State, is offering funding under its Public Diplomacy Small Grants Program through an Annual Program Statement. This announcement explains what types of projects the Embassy wants to support, the main themes and priorities it is looking for, and the basic procedures applicants should follow when submitting a request for funding. The opportunity is categorized as a discretionary grant, meaning proposals are competitively reviewed and selected based on how well they fit the Embassy's goals and requirements.
The main purpose of the program is to strengthen cultural ties between the United States and Eswatini. The Embassy is looking for projects that use cultural and exchange programming to highlight shared values and encourage cooperation between the two countries. A core requirement is that every proposal must include a clear American cultural element or a meaningful connection to the United States, such as involvement from an American expert, organization, or institution in a relevant field. This U.S. link should be more than symbolic; it should be integrated in a way that helps participants better understand U.S. policy, U.S. perspectives, and the broader relationship between the two countries.
Eligibility is limited to applicants who are Emaswati or who are currently residing in Eswatini, and the proposed activities must take place in Eswatini and be primarily focused on Eswatini. The Embassy encourages applications from a wide range of sectors rather than limiting the program to a single type of organization or topic area, as long as the project clearly supports the public diplomacy goal of building mutual understanding and cultural connection.
The program accepts applications from several types of eligible entities: registered not-for-profit organizations (including think tanks and civil society or non-governmental organizations with relevant programming experience), individuals, non-profit or governmental educational institutions, and governmental institutions. Commercial or for-profit entities are explicitly not eligible to apply, which means proposals must be led by non-profit, educational, governmental, or individual applicants rather than businesses seeking profit from the activity.
In terms of award size and timing, the funding opportunity lists an award ceiling of $10,000 per award. The opportunity was created on February 10, 2023, and the original closing date listed is July 31, 2023. The issuing agency is the U.S. Mission to Eswatini. The opportunity is identified by the number DOS PDS MBA APS FY23 01 and is associated with CFDA numbers 19.020 and 19.040, which are federal assistance classifications commonly used for U.S. Department of State public diplomacy and exchange-related funding.
Overall, this grant opportunity is designed for Eswatini-based applicants who can run programs in-country that connect people, institutions, and cultural or educational communities in Eswatini with American partners or expertise, in a way that supports cultural exchange, mutual understanding, and a clearer grasp of U.S. viewpoints and policy priorities.Apply for DOS PDS MBA APS FY23 01
