About this program
The Department of State Office Representative to Muslim Communities funds civil society strengthening and counter-extremism projects globally under CFDA 19.032, with the most recent grant award made on September 1, 2020. Activity has slowed considerably since that date; the program disbursed 13 grants over thirteen years, with award frequency declining from six grants in 2013 to only three in 2020 and no documented awards since. No recent grant opportunities are currently posted.
The program funds social media training, media empowerment, leadership development, and social entrepreneurship capacity-building initiatives in Muslim communities worldwide, with recent awards addressing disinformation countering, youth engagement, and economic development. A $39,400 grant countered Russian and Chinese disinformation about COVID-19 in Georgia's Kvemo Kartli region; a $55,435 award supported a virtual hackathon addressing pandemic response in Egypt; and a $196,811 grant measured U.S. investment impact in Kenya. Funding spans regions including Sub-Saharan Africa, Southeast Asia, and the Pacific.
Awards are predominantly Project Grants (92 percent), with a single Cooperative Agreement comprising the remaining 8 percent. The Department of State Office Representative to Muslim Communities dominated funding with eight awards totaling $2.2 million in federal dollars obligated, while the Bureau of International Information Programs and Office of the Secretary of State each contributed smaller portfolios. Combined federal dollars obligated across all awards total $2.5 million, with individual award magnitudes ranging from $26,975 to $1.518 million, though the largest award ($1.518 million for a professional and cultural exchange program) represents an outlier; most awards cluster between $35,000 and $250,000. Award periods typically run approximately one year.
The portfolio shows minimal recent activity and no open solicitations. Organizations pursuing this program should verify current funding intent through grants.gov, as the six-year gap between the last award and present suggests dormancy or shifting departmental priorities.
