Objectives:
The US Embassy recognizes that knowledge of the English language, and high quality, professional delivery of language instruction, offer opportunities to improve job prospects for Serbia’s citizens, expand access to information and knowledge, and promote critical thinking and media literacy.

We want to support ideas you might have on how to use English to deal with different problems or challenges faced by your community, such as brain drain, limited job opportunities, the impact of COVID-19, or the spread of disinformation.

Sometimes English becomes a bridge for increased communication and cooperation, among neighbors within the Western Balkans, between citizens of Serbia and the U.S., or between people from Serbia and EU member states.

Grant activities may take any number of forms, including English language camps, academic competitions, spelling bees, cross-border exchanges, conferences, workshops, courses, exhibits, app development, hackathons, online projects, simulations, role-playing activities, performances, or other activities.Program Themes:
