What it funds

Official synopsis as published by the agency, formatted for readability.

The U.S. Embassy Dakar Public Diplomacy Section (PDS) of the U.S. Department of State announces an open competition for organizations or individuals to submit a statement of interest (SOI) to carry out a project (or projects) to strengthen cultural ties between the United States and Senegal or between the United States and Guinea Bissau through cultural, educational, capacity building and exchange programming that highlights shared values and promotes bilateral cooperation. Please carefully follow all instructions below.

The submission of the SOI is the first step in a two-step process. Applicants must first submit a concise (1-3-pages) statement of interest designed to clearly communicate projects idea and objectives. This is not a full proposal and will not result in a federal assistance award at this step.

The purpose of the SOI process is to allow applicants to submit project ideas for evaluation prior to requiring the development of a full proposal application. Upon a merit review of eligible SOIs, selected applicants will be invited to expand on their project idea(s) by submitting a full proposal application. Full proposals will go through a second merit review before final funding decision(s) are made.
