Opportunity Information: Apply for DOS NBO PDS FY24 001
The U.S. Embassy Nairobi Public Diplomacy Section (PDS), part of the U.S. Department of State, is offering funding through its Public Diplomacy Small Grants Program under an Annual Program Statement. The goal of this opportunity is to support projects that strengthen ties between the United States and Kenya and encourage practical bilateral cooperation. A core requirement is that every proposed project must include a clear U.S. linkage, such as collaboration with American experts, U.S. organizations, or U.S. institutions in a relevant field. That U.S. connection should help participants better understand U.S. policies, U.S. economic approaches, and the broader U.S.-Kenya partnership.
Projects must align with one of three priority areas. The first is Economic Prosperity, which focuses on initiatives that improve shared prosperity by supporting a fair and reciprocal economic partnership, strengthening Kenyas business climate, growing the startup and entrepreneurship ecosystem, advancing clean energy solutions, building climate resilience, and expanding education and training that prepares the next generation of workers with market-relevant skills. The second priority is Democracy and Governance, which supports programs that reinforce shared democratic values and deepen cooperation around human rights, protection of civic space, rule of law, public accountability, anti-corruption efforts, and the defense of fundamental freedoms. The third priority area is Celebrating 60 Years of U.S.-Kenya Partnership, recognizing that 2024 marks the 60th anniversary of U.S.-Kenya relations; proposals under this theme should highlight and amplify what both countries are accomplishing together across areas such as trade and investment, climate action and renewable energy, public health, education, shared values, and security cooperation.
The intended audiences are primarily Kenyans, especially those positioned to influence communities, institutions, and public conversations. Priority participant groups include young people ages 16 to 35 (including students, civil society leaders, and social influencers), business leaders and emerging entrepreneurs, and established opinion leaders such as cultural influencers and leaders within academic institutions. The program is structured to reach people who can carry lessons forward, build networks, and contribute to long-term collaboration between Kenyan and American partners.
Eligibility is broad and includes both U.S. and Kenyan applicants. The Embassy encourages applications from registered nonprofit organizations (including think tanks and civil society or nongovernmental organizations with programming experience), individuals, nonprofit or governmental educational institutions, and governmental institutions. The funding instrument is a grant, categorized as discretionary funding under CFDA 19.040, and the opportunity is administered by the U.S. Mission to Kenya.
Key administrative details include the funding opportunity number DOS NBO PDS FY24 001 and an award ceiling of USD 30,000 per award. The original closing date listed is June 30, 2024, and the opportunity was created on February 14, 2024. The announcement functions as an Annual Program Statement, meaning it lays out the Embassys themes, priorities, and submission procedures for proposals seeking small-grant support.Apply for DOS NBO PDS FY24 001
