Opportunity Information: Apply for DOS PAS SLO 2018 001
The NGO Small Grants Program 2018 is a discretionary grant opportunity offered by the U.S. Department of State through the U.S. Mission to Slovenia. It is designed to support nonprofit-led projects that advance priorities connected to democracy and human rights, security and foreign policy, economic and civic development, and broader regional stability in Southeastern Europe. The program is open to certain nonprofit applicants, including nonprofits that do not hold U.S. IRS 501(c)(3) status (with institutions of higher education excluded under the eligibility wording provided). Proposals are evaluated through a competitive process, with each submission reviewed by an internal committee at the embassy, and the program notes that new grantees will be prioritized over organizations that have received funding before.
Funding amounts are generally small and intended to complement other sources of support. Typical awards fall in the range of $3,000 to $5,000, while particularly strong or exceptional proposals may be funded up to an award ceiling of $10,000. The opportunity anticipates a relatively large number of grants overall (an expected 100 awards), suggesting the program aims to back many targeted, practical projects rather than a few large initiatives. The application deadline for this cycle is March 1, 2018, with the opportunity having been posted on December 13, 2017.
For this grant period, the embassy indicates it will give special consideration to proposals aligned with a set of priority themes. These include anti-corruption efforts, good governance reforms, and transparency initiatives; entrepreneurship, innovation, economic prosperity, and trade promotion; environmental protection and renewable energy; energy security and diversification; international security topics including counter-terrorism and defense-related issues; and human rights projects, explicitly including work focused on LGBT communities, people with disabilities, women’s empowerment, and minority populations. Additional priority areas include youth engagement, volunteerism, and corporate social responsibility; strengthening responsible and independent media; fostering regional cooperation and supporting Southeastern European integration into Trans-Atlantic institutions; and projects that support the integration of refugees and migrants while promoting respect for diversity and multiculturalism.
A consistent thread running through the themes is an emphasis on constructive civic engagement and institutional strengthening, as well as regional collaboration. The opportunity also highlights a particular interest in projects that encourage exchange, debate, and the promotion of U.S.-Slovenia cooperation, meaning proposals that incorporate dialogue, partnerships, or other forms of cross-border or bilateral engagement may be especially competitive. The program is listed under CFDA number 19.040 and is identified by the funding opportunity number DOS PAS SLO 2018 001.Apply for DOS PAS SLO 2018 001
