Opportunity Information: Apply for PAS LAPAZ FY23 01
The U.S. Embassy in La Paz, through the Department of State's Public Affairs Section (PAS), is offering funding under its Public Diplomacy Small Grants Program as part of an Annual Program Statement. The opportunity is designed to support projects that deepen cultural, educational, professional, and scientific connections between the United States and Bolivia. Competitive proposals are expected to use cultural and exchange programming to highlight shared values and encourage practical bilateral cooperation. A core requirement is that every project include a clear U.S. element, such as collaboration with a U.S. expert, organization, or institution, and that the programming helps Bolivian audiences better understand U.S. policy and perspectives in the relevant area.
PAS La Paz is prioritizing proposals in several strategic areas. These include efforts that increase academic and cultural exchanges between Bolivia and the United States, expand English language learning and proficiency, and promote entrepreneurship and innovation. The Embassy is also interested in projects that strengthen cooperation in science and technology, including programming connected to climate change challenges and solutions. Additional priorities include promoting social inclusion and supporting initiatives that counter disinformation by improving media literacy and advancing high-quality, ethical journalism.
A major emphasis of the program is reaching diverse audiences across Bolivia, not only in geography but also across demographic and socio-economic lines. The Embassy is particularly interested in projects that engage women and girls, Afro-descendant communities, Indigenous communities, and youth from underserved backgrounds. Proposals are also encouraged that involve civil society and opinion-shaping groups such as NGOs and think tanks, as well as national, regional, and local media. Programs that connect with cultural and educational leaders and "next generation" leaders (for example, innovators, digital influencers, and university campus leaders) align well with the stated outreach goals.
The announcement also clearly lists activities that are not eligible for funding. PAS will not support partisan political programming, charitable or humanitarian relief, social welfare or general development activities, or construction. It also excludes projects that promote specific religious activities, fundraising campaigns, or lobbying for particular legislation or government programs. Scientific research itself is not fundable under this opportunity, and neither are projects primarily aimed at building the applicant organization's internal capacity or institutional development. Proposals that duplicate existing programs are also ineligible, signaling that PAS is looking for distinct programming with clear public diplomacy value rather than repetition of ongoing initiatives.
Administratively, this is a discretionary grant opportunity issued by the Department of State, U.S. Mission to Bolivia, under CFDA number 19.040. The funding opportunity number is PAS LAPAZ FY23 01. The program used a rolling deadline, with proposals accepted over time until the final submission date of August 31, 2023, and awards were noted as subject to availability of funds. The listed maximum award amount is $40,000, and the Embassy anticipated making around 20 awards.Apply for PAS LAPAZ FY23 01
