Opportunity Information: Apply for BAMAKO PAS SMLGR2020 001
The U.S. Embassy Bamako Public Affairs Section (PAS), part of the U.S. Department of State at the U.S. Mission to Mali, issued an Annual Program Statement for its Public Diplomacy Small Grants Program. This opportunity is a discretionary federal funding program and uses a grant as the primary funding instrument. In plain terms, it is meant to support projects that advance U.S. public diplomacy goals in Mali, and it serves as a standing announcement that lays out the embassy's strategic priorities as well as the step-by-step process applicants must follow to request support.
The opportunity is identified as "U.S. Embassy Bamako PAS Annual Program Statement" with the funding opportunity number BAMAKO PAS SMLGR2020 001, and it is associated with CFDA number 19.040 (a State Department public diplomacy and cultural programs assistance listing). The announcement was created on March 24, 2020, and the original closing date was August 1, 2020. The program anticipated making about five awards, with a maximum possible award amount (award ceiling) of up to $300,000. Because the announcement is framed as an annual program statement, it is designed to communicate what types of proposals the embassy is looking to support over a defined period and to standardize how proposals should be submitted and evaluated, rather than functioning as a one-off solicitation for a single narrowly defined project.
Eligibility is listed broadly as "Others," with the note that additional eligibility details are contained in the full announcement. That phrasing typically indicates that eligibility may extend beyond only U.S.-based organizations, and may include local entities, nonprofit organizations, educational institutions, civil society groups, or other organizations that can carry out public diplomacy programming, but applicants would need to rely on the full text to confirm exactly who can apply and under what conditions. The funding activity category is listed as "Other," signaling that the grants are intended for public diplomacy-related activities that may cut across common categories such as education, culture, media, civic engagement, youth programming, or community-based initiatives, depending on the embassy's strategic priorities described in the full guidance.
At its core, the announcement emphasizes that applicants must carefully follow the instructions provided in the Annual Program Statement. That usually includes requirements on proposal format, mandatory forms, budget structure, deadlines, and any program-specific rules, as well as how the embassy will review submissions. The key takeaway is that this is a competitive, discretionary grant opportunity administered by the U.S. Embassy in Bamako to fund a small set of public diplomacy projects aligned with the embassy's stated priorities, with awards potentially reaching up to $300,000 and an expected total of around five grants during the cycle.Apply for BAMAKO PAS SMLGR2020 001
