Description:

The U.S Mission to Nigeria is pleased to announce the call for application for the 2024 cycle of the Cultural Property Agreement Implementation Grant (CPAIG) Program. The deadline for the submission of proposals for Round 1 application is January 11, 2024 at 11:59pm.

 

CPAIG Program Background and Objectives:

In 2020, the CPAIG program was established by the Department of State in consultation with the interagency Cultural Antiquities Task Force (CATF) to support CATF’s anti-trafficking mission by promoting the implementation of cultural property agreements between the United States and foreign governments or emergency import restrictions. Cultural property agreements and emergency import restriction put into practice U.S. obligations under the UNESCO 1970 Convention on the Means of Prohibiting and Preventing the Illicit Import, Export and Transfer of Ownership of Cultural Property, as implemented by U.S. legislation. The United States has a Cultural Property Agreement in place with Nigeria, signed in January 2022, that protects Nigeria’s antiquities by prohibiting their import into the United States.
