Opportunity Summary:
The U.S. Embassy in London announced a discretionary grant opportunity titled "Northern Ireland Assembly: Current U.S. Political Economic and Social Issues" (Funding Opportunity Number: DOS LONDON PD 2016 05). The purpose of the grant is to support the design and delivery of an eleven-day group exchange program in the United States for up to ten participants from Northern Ireland. The target delegation is specifically composed of people who shape public debate and policy on a day-to-day basis, including frontline politicians, communications directors, special advisers, and journalists. The exchange is intended to immerse this group in current U.S. political, economic, and social issues through a structured program organized by the selected grantee.
The award is funded and administered by the U.S. Department of State through its London post (Agency: DOS-GBR) and falls under CFDA 19.452. The funding instrument is a grant, and the activity category is listed as "Other," with additional clarification expected in the full announcement text. The program anticipates making a single award, with an award ceiling of $75,000, meaning proposals should be designed to fit within that maximum budget level while still covering all required program components to run an eleven-day U.S.-based exchange for the delegation.
Eligible applicants are limited to two main types of U.S. entities: public and state-controlled institutions of higher education, and nonprofit organizations that hold 501(c)(3) status with the IRS (excluding institutions of higher education if applying under the nonprofit category). In practical terms, this points to universities, colleges, and eligible nonprofits with the administrative capacity and programmatic experience to plan international exchanges, coordinate travel and logistics, and create substantive meetings and site visits that align with the theme of contemporary U.S. political, economic, and social issues.
Key dates indicate the opportunity was created and posted on May 31, 2016, with an original and current application deadline of June 30, 2016. Only one award was expected, suggesting a competitive selection in which the chosen organization would be responsible for end-to-end program development and implementation, including building an itinerary, arranging speaker engagements and institutional visits, and ensuring the exchange meaningfully addresses the thematic focus while serving the professional needs of participants from Northern Ireland.
