International Visitor Leadership Program Assistance Award
The Office of International Visitors, Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs (ECA/PE/V), United States Department of State (DoS), announces an open competition for up to four assistance awards to administer the International Visitor Leadership Program (IVLP).
The IVLP is the U. S. Department of State‟s premier professional exchange program.
Launched in 1940, the IVLP is a professional exchange program that seeks to build mutual understanding between the U. S. and other nations through carefully designed short-term visits to the U. S. for current and emerging foreign leaders.
These visits reflect the International Visitors‟ professional interests and support the foreign policy goals of the United States.
The amount of funding available is approximately $4,700,000, pending the availability of FY 2012 funds.
ECA anticipates awarding up to four cooperative agreements for the total funding available.
The assistance awards, all together, will support programming for approximately 2,000 International Visitors (IVs).
Public and private non-profit organizations meeting the provisions described in Internal Revenue Code section 26 USC 501(c)(3) may submit proposals.
Applicants may submit only one proposal under this competition.
If multiple proposals are received from the same applicant, all submissions will be declared ineligible and receive no further consideration in the review process.
