Opportunity Information: Apply for BUCHAREST PAS FY19 07
The U.S. Embassy in Bucharest, through the Department of State's Bureau of Public Affairs, offered a discretionary grant opportunity titled "Romania: Poetry Competition - Life Under Communism" (Funding Opportunity Number BUCHAREST PAS FY19 07). The program was designed to support a single Romanian-led project that would organize a nationwide poetry competition in English for high school students, centered on the theme of everyday life under communism. The main idea behind the competition was to combine creative writing with civic and historical reflection, encouraging students across Romania to engage thoughtfully with the communist period through an accessible, youth-focused cultural activity.
Funding for the project was offered as a grant, with an award ceiling of up to $25,000 and an expectation of one award total. The activity category falls under Humanities (with cultural affairs relevance), and the associated CFDA number listed is 19.040. The opportunity was created on June 21, 2019, and the original application deadline was August 14, 2019. In practical terms, the funding level suggests support for core implementation costs such as competition design and promotion, outreach to schools, coordination and administration, judging and mentorship elements, possible workshops or readings, and culminating events like an awards ceremony or public showcase, as long as these align with the competition's educational and civic objectives.
Eligibility focused on non-political, mission-driven organizations and institutions with relevant experience, specifically those able to demonstrate capacity in creative writing, education, and civic engagement. Eligible applicant types included public and state-controlled institutions of higher education as well as nonprofit organizations, including both U.S.-style 501(c)(3) nonprofits and nonprofits without 501(c)(3) status (as listed in the opportunity). The description emphasizes that applicants should be Romanian organizations and institutions and explicitly notes the requirement of having no political affiliations, signaling that the program aimed to remain educational and cultural rather than partisan.
Overall, this grant opportunity supported a structured, English-language poetry competition for Romanian high school students, using the theme of life under communism to promote historical awareness, reflection on civic values, and creative expression. The U.S. Mission to Romania served as the issuing agency, and the grant was intended to back one strong implementing partner capable of organizing a credible, inclusive, and nationwide competition experience.Apply for BUCHAREST PAS FY19 07
