FY 2024 Leaders Lead On-Demand Program
The Office of Citizen Exchanges at the U. S. Department of State’s Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs (ECA) invites proposals for the FY 2024 Leaders Lead On-Demand program (LLOD).
LLOD takes ideas generated across the U. S. Department of State and develops them into uniquely tailored, multi-segmented projects.
LLOD supports U. S. foreign policy goals by enabling ECA to quickly respond to emerging foreign policy priorities.
U. S. public and private non-profit organizations meeting the provisions described in Internal Revenue Code section 26 USC 501(c)(3) may submit proposals to provide a series of multi-segmented exchange projects ranging in size and scope, each involving current or potential government, business, and civil society leaders.
It is anticipated that this cooperative agreement will support four to six distinct exchange projects for approximately 75 participants including approximately 55 foreign participants and 20 from the United States.A central component of each project will include a group of foreign participants who will ideally travel to the United States for an intensive, tailored program.
Activities could offer a range of program components that may include participation in workshops, meetings, events, mentorships, or working placements in U. S. organizations or businesses.
Any U.S.-based program should be complemented by at least one additional segment overseas that should include U. S. participants.
Both foreign and U. S. participants should have experience or expertise in the field of the exchange project and U. S. participants should engage with the foreign participants during both the U. S. and foreign program components.
The award recipient will work closely with ECA, other Department of State representatives, in-country or regionally-based partner organizations, as appropriate, to recruit, screen, and select the participants and develop program activities that best address the specific project goal(s).Please see full announcement for additional information.
