Opportunity Information: Apply for DOS GEO 20 CA 007 051920
The Georgian Media Education Program, titled "Strengthening Journalism Education in Georgia," is a U.S. Department of State-funded opportunity run through the Public Affairs Section (PAS) of the U.S. Embassy in Tbilisi. It is offered as a discretionary cooperative agreement (Funding Opportunity Number: DOS GEO 20 CA 007 051920; CFDA: 19.900) and is designed as a year-long project focused on improving the professional skills and international exposure of Georgian journalism educators. The central idea is to strengthen journalism education in Georgia by investing directly in the people who teach it at both public and private higher education institutions.
The program’s core activity is a two-week intensive professional study tour in the United States for up to 18 Georgian media educators. The tour is meant to be robust and hands-on, centered on engagement with U.S. schools of journalism, media, and mass communication. In addition to academic-oriented programming, the tour is expected to include site visits to U.S.-based media organizations and relevant journalism education associations, giving participants a practical look at how journalism is taught, practiced, and institutionally supported in the U.S. The opportunity also allows for optional complementary activities, such as attending annual conventions or conferences that promote excellence in journalism education, as another way to broaden participants' professional networks and bring back current methods and standards.
Eligible applicants are U.S. nonprofit/non-governmental organizations and accredited American higher education institutions. The eligibility list includes public and state-controlled institutions of higher education, private institutions of higher education, and nonprofits with or without 501(c)(3) status (as long as they are not institutions of higher education, where applicable). The selected applicant will be expected to manage the program in close coordination with PAS throughout the grant period, especially when it comes to identifying and selecting Georgian participants. Because this is a cooperative agreement rather than a standard grant, the Embassy’s Public Affairs Section is positioned to play an active role during implementation, particularly around participant coordination and ensuring the project aligns with U.S. public diplomacy objectives.
Funding is capped at an award ceiling of $250,000, with one award expected. The funding is specifically intended to defray the costs associated with implementing the two-week U.S. study tour for the participant cohort, including the logistical and programmatic elements required to run it successfully. Proposals are expected to account for practical participation barriers, including provisions for non-English speaking participants, and the implementing organization must secure international travel insurance covering the entire duration of the study tour. The opportunity was created on May 19, 2020, and the original closing date for submissions was July 3, 2020.Apply for DOS GEO 20 CA 007 051920
