About this opportunity
This federal grant opportunity seeks proposals to design and implement the Young Southeast Asian Leaders Initiative Academic Fellowship program. The Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs within the Department of State will award one cooperative agreement to administer 20 Institutes between spring 2025 and fall 2025. Each Institute will host 25 undergraduate or recent graduate participants from Southeast Asia for a five-week academic residency at a U.S. university followed by a one-week study tour in Washington D.C. The program aims to provide leadership and civic engagement education to approximately 500 fellows across four themes. Proposals are due by March 8, 2024 and will be evaluated based on their ability to achieve the program objectives.
The estimated total budget for the base year and two additional non-competitive continuation years is $30 million. Successful proposals will coordinate 10 Institutes each in spring 2025 and fall 2025 requiring programming at U.S. colleges and universities as well as educational activities in Washington D.C.
