Description

The U.S. Embassy Public Diplomacy Section in New Delhi, under the U.S. Department of State, announces an open competition for organizations to submit applications to carry out a series of events to provide established opinion leaders a ringside view of American-funded programs in India. The proposals are being solicited for a Cooperative Agreement that meets the specifications stated in Section II from legally recognized organizations that meet U.S. and Indian technical and legal requirements to develop and implement public diplomacy programs specified below. The program envisages taking journalists from print, digital, and broadcast outlets to see U.S. government programs in action, meet the beneficiaries of the programs, and talk on-the-record with the Mission India principals about the policy or goal behind the projects. This will showcase to these influential media persons the long history of close cooperation between India and the United States in various fields, from culture to health like COVID response and vaccine production. These 12 press events, through a one-year period, can be in any of the four consulate or the embassy New Delhi’s region.The United States and India are better together, and so the goal is to foster increased understanding of U.S. government policy on the part of Established Opinion Leaders in India, to increase their sentiment of the United States as a reliable partner and encourage future cooperation.(Please refer to the full announcement available under 'related documents' tab)
