Description

The Public Affairs Section (PAS) of the U.S. Mission to China (Embassy Beijing and Consulates General Chengdu, Guangzhou, Shanghai, Shenyang, and Wuhan) of the United States Department of State announces an open competition for organizations to submit applications to carry out programs in support of activities that explain U.S. foreign policy, values, and culture to the people of China. Please carefully follow all instructions below. Program Objective: Help Chinese audiences better understand the United States’ foreign policy, values, and culture. Funding Amount: PAS will generally award multiple grants of up to US$50,000 per grant, but will consider projects up to US$150,000. Prospective Grantees: Prospective grantees will include but are not limited to NGO/ civil society organizations (rule of law, arts institutions, LGBTQ, environment, etc.), universities, and think tanks. Program Preferences: We seek to fund creative projects that build upon existing partnerships between U.S. organizations and Chinese counterparts, as well as those that create new partnerships and expand operational capabilities of existing ones. Of particular interest are programs that incorporate digital engagement, and establish sustainable relationships with communities who for reasons such as language or geography cannot easily engage with our Mission.”
