About this program

The Department of State Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs operates the Congress-Bundestag Youth Exchange program (CFDA 19.410) to foster mutual understanding and diplomatic ties between young people and institutions in the United States and Germany. The program has not disbursed grant awards since September 2010 — more than sixteen years ago — making current pursuit inadvisable.

The program funded youth exchange initiatives and leadership development activities centered on U.S.-German cultural and civic engagement. Recent awards supported Congress-Bundestag Youth Exchange programming as well as related leadership and community development projects. The Department of State Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs was the sole funder across the program's documented history, awarding 15 Project Grants totaling $6.7 million in combined federal dollars obligated between February 2007 and September 2010.

Award activity declined sharply over time: seven awards in 2007, five in 2008, two in 2009, and one in 2010. Recent award magnitudes varied substantially, ranging from $25,000 to $829,906. Representative funded projects included a Congress-Bundestag Youth Exchange program grant of $813,639 awarded in March 2009 to support exchange activity, a second Congress-Bundestag award of $428,721 in February 2009, and a grant of $829,906 to support the Congress-Bundestag program in March 2007. One smaller award of $25,000 in September 2010 to AMIDEAST focused on leadership, community development, and civic responsibility training.

No grant opportunities are currently open under this program. The source contains no evidence of recent solicitation activity or posted opportunities, and the sixteen-year gap since the last award strongly suggests the program is inactive.
