Opportunity Information: Apply for PAS NOG FY21 01
The U.S. Department of State, through the U.S. Mission to Mexico and the Public Affairs Section (PAS) at the U.S. Consulate General in Nogales, is offering funding under its Public Diplomacy Small Grants Program as part of an Annual Program Statement. This opportunity is meant to support small, focused public diplomacy projects that build and deepen ties between the United States and Mexico. The core idea is to fund cultural and exchange-based programming that highlights shared values, encourages mutual understanding, and supports practical bilateral cooperation in areas that matter to both societies.
A central requirement is that every proposed project must include a clear U.S. cultural element or a concrete connection to the United States, such as involvement from U.S. experts, U.S. organizations, or U.S. institutions in a relevant field. The intent behind this requirement is not just symbolic participation, but programming that genuinely helps audiences better understand U.S. policy, perspectives, and approaches, while also creating space for dialogue and collaborative work with Mexican partners. In other words, proposals need to show how the U.S. component strengthens the program outcomes and supports the broader relationship between the two countries.
The program is open to a range of project concepts, with examples including academic or professional lectures, seminars, and speaker series; artistic and cultural workshops; joint performances and exhibitions; and initiatives focused on entrepreneurship, STEAM education, and broader economic development. The scope also includes governance-related efforts such as transparency, anti-corruption, and rule of law programming, as well as environmental preservation, conservation, and education projects. Applicants can also propose cultural heritage conservation and preservation activities and professional or academic exchanges. These examples are illustrative rather than restrictive, signaling that PAS is interested in practical, community-facing activities that create measurable engagement and lasting connections.
This is a discretionary grant opportunity, meaning awards are competitive and based on alignment with PAS priorities and the strength of the proposal. The award ceiling is $10,000 per grant, and the announcement anticipates making around 10 awards. The funding activity category is listed as "Other," with the details effectively defined by the program description and the public diplomacy and cultural exchange focus. The listing also notes eligibility as "Others," indicating that applicants should review the eligibility instructions in the full announcement language to confirm whether their organization type fits the program requirements.
Key administrative details from the posting include the opportunity number PAS NOG FY21 01, a creation date of June 8, 2021, and an original closing date of June 21, 2021. Overall, the opportunity is designed for organizations and implementers that can deliver relatively small-budget, high-impact programs that connect Mexican participants with U.S. expertise or cultural engagement, promote shared values, and contribute to stronger U.S.-Mexico cooperation through education, culture, and exchange.Apply for PAS NOG FY21 01
