Grant Description

Local grants are intended for individuals, non-governmental organizations (NGOs), think tanks, and academic institutions. They support projects that: 1. Encourage the fullest participation, especially of women and youth, in helping Mali to consolidate its existing democracy and promote public political discourse; 2. Promote moderate voices to counter extremist voices that recruit, mislead, and exploit; 3. Reinforce the bridge of mutual understanding and shared vision between the U.S. and Mali; and, 4. Build communication capacity of the Malian people, media, and government. Local grant proposals must have a connection to American culture and values or should be directed to increasing understanding in Mali of American culture and society.
