The Department of State's Bureau of Cyberspace and Digital Policy (CDP) is announcing an open competition for organizations to carry out the 18-month, $900,000 Global Emerging Leaders in International Cyberspace Security (GEL-ICS) cooperative agreement project. The program aims to build a cohesive group of leaders working on issues in cyberspace who are committed to the UN-affirmed Framework of Responsible State Behavior and will be equipped with the necessary knowledge and global connections to be effective advocates and champions of the Framework. Eligible applicants are U.S.-based non-profits, public international organizations, and for-profit entities. The application deadline is July 15, 2024, and CDP anticipates making the award in August 2024.

Key components of the GEL-ICS program include a two-week U.S. visit, a series of virtual webinars, and participation in an international cyber/technology conference for a cohort of 20-25 government officials from foreign partner countries.
