About this opportunity
The U.S. Department of State's Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs (ECA) is seeking applications for three distinct regional Youth Ambassadors programs in the East Asia and Pacific, Europe and Eurasia, and Middle East and North Africa regions. Eligible applicants include U.S. 501(c)(3) non-profit organizations and public/private higher education institutions. The programs will provide approximately 170 youth and adult participants with four-week exchanges in the United States focused on civic education, leadership development, respect for diversity, and community engagement. The Middle East and North Africa program will also include approximately 25 competitively selected U.S. secondary students. Proposals are due by May 29, 2024, and will be evaluated based on the stated program objectives and requirements.
The total approximate funding for the three regional programs is $2.9 million, with individual awards ranging from $680,000 to $1.3 million. The programs will engage participants in activities in the United States, with the goal of supporting the implementation of service projects in their home communities.

Update #2 · Latest ·
The Office of Citizen Exchanges, Youth Programs Division of the Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs (ECA) announces an FY 2024 open competition for three distinct regional Youth Ambassadors programs (previously called Youth Leadership Programs) with select countries in East Asia and Pacific (EAP), Europe and Eurasia (EUR), and the Middle East and North Africa (NEA). U.S. public and private non-profit organizations meeting the provisions described in Internal Revenue Code section 26 USC 501(c)(3) may submit proposals to provide participants with four-week exchanges in the United States focused on the primary themes of civic education, leadership development, respect for diversity, and community engagement and to support the implementation of service projects in their home communities. The EAP and NEA programs also will engage approximately 3-5 adult mentors in programming alongside youth participants. Competitively selected U.S. secondary students will join participants in U.S.-based activities on the NEA exchanges.
Only one proposal per region will be considered by ECA from each applicant organization. In cases where more than one submission per region from an applicant appears in grants.gov, ECA will only consider the submission made closest in time to the NOFO deadline; that submission would constitute the one and only proposal ECA would review for the region from that applicant.
Please see the full announcement for additional information.
