• Not-for-profit organizations
• Civil society/non-governmental organizations

• Public and private educational institutions

For-profit entities, even those that may fall into the categories listed above, are not eligible to apply for this NOFO. Organizations may sub-contract with other entities, but only one, non-profit, non-governmental entity can be the prime recipient of the award. When sub-contracting with other entities, the responsibilities of each entity must be clearly defined in the proposal.

The U.S. Department of State’s U.S. Embassy Islamabad announces an open competition for one assistance award through this Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO), contingent on funding availability, through the Public Diplomacy Grants Program. The grantee will implement a program to empower young Pakistani citizens to actively engage in democratic society. Competitive proposals should outline substantive components of skills-training workshops in Pakistan that will help participants develop the necessary leadership skills, commitment to community service, and stakeholder networks to contribute to the betterment of their communities and country.
