Opportunity Information: Apply for AFGABO FY22 01

The U.S. Embassy Gaborone Public Affairs Section (PAS) Annual Program Statement is a discretionary small grants opportunity from the U.S. Department of State, U.S. Mission to Botswana, designed to fund projects that deepen cooperation and mutual understanding between the United States and Botswana. The program is geared toward practical, community-relevant initiatives that also highlight shared values and strengthen bilateral ties through public engagement, education, and exchange-oriented activities. A central expectation is that every proposed project clearly includes a U.S. connection, such as participation by American experts, collaboration with U.S. organizations or institutions, or a substantive American component that helps audiences better understand U.S. policy approaches and perspectives in the project’s subject area.

Funding priorities are broad but targeted to themes the Embassy considers important for Botswana’s development and regional stability. Proposals are encouraged that help build Botswana’s knowledge-based economy, expand awareness and adoption of renewable energy solutions, and support climate change adaptation and mitigation. The opportunity also emphasizes empowerment of women in public leadership, initiatives that enhance security, and programs that reinforce conservation and natural resource stewardship. In addition, PAS is looking for projects that motivate and strengthen civil society, promote diversity and inclusion with attention to minority groups, and deliver cultural and exchange programming that advances people-to-people ties and public diplomacy goals.

The Embassy provides examples of the kinds of activities it is interested in supporting, while making clear that these are illustrative rather than exhaustive. Examples include academic and professional lectures, seminars, and speaker programs; renewable energy and climate projects that raise awareness, educate, and provide tangible benefits to local communities; natural resource management workshops for community-based organizations; anti-pollution and waste management awareness workshops aimed at both communities and city management officials; rural programs focused on human-wildlife conflict awareness and mitigation; cultural heritage conservation and preservation activities; and professional and academic exchanges and related programming. Overall, the common thread across these examples is a focus on capacity building, public education, practical problem-solving, and sustained networks that connect Botswana stakeholders with U.S. expertise or institutions.

Key administrative details indicate the opportunity number is AFGABO FY22 01, published March 1, 2022, with an original closing date of August 30, 2022. Awards are structured as grants, with an award ceiling of $25,000 and an anticipated total of about four awards.
