About this opportunity

The U.S. Department of State's U.S. Consulate Casablanca is seeking cooperative agreement proposals for the "Promoting American Excellence to Moroccan Youth 2025" grant program. The initiative aims to deliver impactful programs that promote American culture and values among Moroccan youth aged 18-30, with a focus on four key areas: English language learning, creative economies, digital transformation, and STEAM. Eligible applicants include 501(c)(3) non-profit organizations, and proposals will be evaluated on criteria such as program quality, organizational capacity, planning, budget, monitoring, and sustainability. The application deadline is July 31, 2025.

The grant program offers three awards ranging from $40,000 to $120,000, with a total available funding of $123,000 for fiscal year 2025.

Programs must be implemented primarily at American Spaces locations in Morocco, with virtual components used as needed, and may involve local partner organizations dedicated to amplifying American culture.

Synopsis

For Fiscal Year 2025, American Spaces Morocco aims to continue delivering impactful programs that promote American excellence and encourage the best and brightest young Moroccans, ages 18 to 30, to increase their engagement with America. The programming will focus on four key areas: English language learning, creative economies, digital transformation, and STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Math). The English Language Learning initiative will provide immersive, skill-building opportunities that enhance language proficiency while fostering cultural exchange and greater appreciation of American values. Creative economy programming will build connections between American and Moroccan artists, entrepreneurs, and innovators, with the goal of increasing interest in U.S. expertise, services, and educational opportunities within creative industries. Digital transformation programs will offer participants-including individuals and small businesses-the tools and knowledge needed to thrive in an increasingly digital world, with an emphasis on the influence and benefits of American technology. STEAM initiatives will promote hands-on learning and inspire Moroccan youth to explore academic and professional paths in STEAM-related fields, while also encouraging them to consider higher education in the United States. Programs will be held primarily in person at American Spaces, with virtual components used to extend reach or serve as the main method of delivery when necessary. The initiative seeks proposals that prioritize the needs of young participants while minimizing administrative and equipment costs. A successful proposal will include a detailed monthly calendar of activities spanning at least eight months and address one or more of the core focus areas. Programming may be implemented at one or both American Spaces locations as well as with local partner organizations dedicated to amplifying American culture.
