Opportunity Information: Apply for S DR860 APS 2021 01
The U.S. Embassy in Santo Domingo is offering funding through its Public Diplomacy Small Grants Program under an Annual Program Statement (APS). This opportunity supports projects designed to strengthen cultural, educational, professional, and scientific ties between the United States and the Dominican Republic. The embassy is looking for programs that highlight shared values, encourage bilateral cooperation, and create meaningful engagement with Dominican audiences through communication, dialogue, and people-to-people connections that build goodwill and longer-term relationships with U.S. society and culture.
A core requirement is that every proposed project must include a clear American element. In practice, this means the program needs a direct and credible link to the United States, such as participation by American experts, partnerships with U.S. organizations or institutions, or other concrete U.S.-based connections relevant to the topic area. The purpose of this American element is not just symbolic; it should help increase understanding of U.S. policies and perspectives while supporting collaboration and exchange between U.S. and Dominican participants.
The embassy indicates a wide range of eligible public diplomacy activities. Examples mentioned include academic and professional lectures, seminars, and speaker series; artistic, sports, and cultural workshops, joint performances, and exhibitions; cultural heritage preservation and conservation initiatives; and professional or academic exchanges and related programming. These examples suggest the program is flexible in format as long as the proposal advances the public diplomacy mission and meets the American-element requirement.
Projects are expected to align with the U.S. Mission’s priority goals in the Dominican Republic. The stated priority areas are protecting America’s security both at home and in the Dominican Republic, encouraging a democratic Dominican Republic, supporting a Dominican Republic that advances shared prosperity, and building support in the Dominican Republic for U.S. leadership and shared values. Strong proposals will typically connect their activities and intended outcomes to at least one of these themes in a clear, measurable way.
