Description

Program Objectives: The United States Embassy is pleased to announce the first round of the 2021 Democracy Commission Small Grants Program competition. The program supports initiatives that develop democracy, promote respect for human rights, and support civic education in Armenia. Special consideration will be given to proposals that focus on one or more of the following: • Support transparency and accountability in governance and the fight against corruption; • Develop independent, diverse, and pluralistic media in Armenia; • Promote the importance of entrepreneurship and boost entrepreneurial skills; and • Promote activities to engage youth audiences in the development of civic participation, political debate, and social responsibility in Armenia. All projects should explain how the proposed activities impact Armenia’s democratic development and further the long-term goals of the organization. Project proposals should describe specific objectives and expected outcomes. Proposals focused primarily on training or capacity building will not be considered unless the training will lead to concrete, measurable outcomes. Collaborative projects between partnering NGOs are strongly encouraged. Participants and Audiences: Please be specific when mentioning the target audience(s) of your proposed project, including demographic information and the approximate number of beneficiaries to be directly and indirectly impacted by project activities.
