The Public Diplomacy Section (PDS) administers an Alumni Outreach Program aimed at expanding outreach to alumni of U. S. government-funded exchange programs.
The program provides small grants to alumni associations to support visionary initiatives with measurable goals that benefit local communities.
Priority
is given to projects that encourage activism in community service, democratic advancement, and economic reform.
These grants are one-time opportunities to help alumni launch sustainable projects that build on their exchange program experiences.
Proposals must demonstrate how activities develop and share skills gained in the U.S., incorporate themes from the alumni’s program, and benefit citizens of North Macedonia.
