Alumni Grants Program
The U. S. Embassy Tbilisi announces an open competition for Georgian USG alumni for activities that support Georgia’s democratic development and Western integration.
The Program allows post to provide individual grants to Georgians who are alumni of U. S. government exchange programs.
These small grants support activities that advance Georgia’s democratic development and Western integration by promoting gender equality, inclusion of ethnic and religious minorities, independent media development, cyber-security and cyber education, basic education, economic growth, and entrepreneurship.
Grant proposals must support projects that address a tangible need in a community and have measurable outcomes.
Applicants may develop partnerships with relevant stakeholders, including the public and/or private sector as well as local organizations, where applicable.
Please note that basic education proposals should focus on strengthening public schools for grades 1-12 through teacher training and professional development or innovative programs for students including school libraries, science and language labs, and enrichment programs.
For more information on basic education strategies, please review the U. S. Government Education Strategy FY2019-2023 and the USAID Education Policy Program Cycle Implementation and Operational Guide.
