Description

The Public Diplomacy Sections of the U.S. Mission to China (Embassy Beijing and Consulates General Shanghai, Guangzhou, Wuhan, and Shenyang) of the United States Department of State announce an open competition for organizations and individuals to submit applications to carry out programs in support of activities that forge and/or strengthen connections between the people of China and the people of the United States. Please carefully follow all instructions below. Program Objective: Through direct or virtual engagement, increase Chinese audiences’ understanding of United States’ foreign policy, values, and culture. Participants and Audiences: The U.S. Mission to China seeks 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 organizations. Of particular interest are programs that establish sustainable relationships with communities who for reasons such as language or geography cannot easily engage with our Mission. Proposals that address the following goals will be given priority: A) Increase diversity, equity, inclusion, and accessibility; B) Improve sharing of information and perspectives to support adherence to global norms regarding trade, intellectual property protection, and regional security; C) Promote cooperation in combating the climate crisis, and D) Strengthen understanding of U.S. society and values through education, culture, and the arts. Programming may include (but are not limited to): Lecture series, seminars, workshops or other programming that highlight U.S. foreign policy goals or explain U.S. society, government, and values; Performing arts programming representing the broad range of U.S. performing arts, including but not limited to music, dance, and drama that target key audiences; Educational programs that incorporate American foreign policy or values into classroom or other educational outreach programs.
