Synopsis
The U.S. Embassy Colombo, Public Diplomacy Section (PDS) is pleased to announce a funding opportunity through the Public Diplomacy grants program for support of American Spaces in Sri Lanka.
There are two awards associated with this funding opportunity: 1) Administrative AND programmatic support for American Corner Kandy; and 2) Programmatic support for American Center Colombo. We seek a single grantee to implement both awards (through a Cooperative Agreement; with significant Public Diplomacy Section input and assistance). The grantee would issue any necessary sub-awards or sub-grants to support the two American Spaces throughout the grant period.
American Spaces are cultural centers based in libraries and other institutions throughout Sri Lanka with a target audience of youth between 17and 35 years old, particularly those with the potential and interest to become local or national leaders. The American Spaces seek to empower youth, traditionally underrepresented communities including women, racial and ethnic minorities, and people with disabilities. American Spaces provide resources and development opportunities to their target audience, while also serving as gateways for their audience to learn about American society, culture, and values.
American Spaces operate based on the global standards of the American Spaces program. These standards mandate that every American Spaces offer programming in six core areas:
- Information about the United States
- English Language Teaching and Learning
- EducationUSA Advising
- Cultural Programs
- Alumni of U.S. government-sponsored exchange programs
- Skills Building
