Opportunity Summary:
The Algeria Youth Leadership Program was a discretionary grant opportunity offered by the U.S. Department of State, Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs (ECA), through its Office of Citizen Exchanges, Youth Programs Division. The program invited eligible organizations to propose and run a youth exchange and leadership initiative aimed at high school students from Algeria. At its core, the grant was designed to support a roughly six-week program split between activities in Algeria and in the United States, with an emphasis on developing young leaders, strengthening civic education, and encouraging respect for diversity. The overall intent was to build participants knowledge and skills around leadership and civic participation while also creating a structured intercultural experience through time spent in both countries.
Only certain types of applicants were eligible to apply. The competition was open to public and private nonprofit organizations that meet the requirements of IRS tax-exempt status under 26 USC 501(c)(3). In addition, institutions of higher education were listed as eligible, including public and state-controlled universities as well as private colleges and universities. The announcement indicates that applicants were expected to submit proposals describing how they would recruit and select Algerian high school students and then implement the full program cycle, including both the in-country component and the U.S.-based component. Because the opportunity was archived shortly after the deadline, it reflects a past funding round rather than an active solicitation.
Funding for the opportunity was capped at a total of $225,000, and the award ceiling was also $225,000, meaning the single expected award could fund the entire program up to that amount. The notice anticipated making one award in total. A cost-sharing or matching requirement applied, so the selected grantee would need to contribute non-federal resources or demonstrate partner support consistent with the terms described in the full announcement. The listing shows the funding instrument as a grant and categorizes the activity broadly as "Other," with details deferred to the full program announcement.
Key administrative details include the funding opportunity number ECA-PE-C-PY-08-12 and the title "Algeria Youth Leadership Program." The opportunity was posted and created on November 2, 2007, with an application deadline of January 3, 2008, and an archive date of January 4, 2008. Applicants who could not access the full announcement electronically were directed to contact the program specialist, Hans Posey, at poseyhe@state.gov for assistance.
