Executive Summary: The Office of
Citizen Exchanges, ECA/PE/C, of the
Bureau of Educational and Cultural
Affairs announces an open competition

funds, it is anticipated that
approximately $5,600,000 or more will
be available to support this competition.
ECA/PE/C expects to fund
approximately 10–15 projects under this
competition in FY 2009. U.S. public and
non-profit organizations meeting the
provisions described in Internal
Revenue code section 26 U.S.C.
501(c)(3) may submit proposals that
support the goals of The Professional
Exchange Program. Projects should
promote mutual understanding and
partnerships between key professional
and cultural groups in the United States
and counterpart groups in other
countries through multi-phased
exchanges taking place over one to two
years. Proposals should encourage
citizen engagement in current issues
and promote the development of
democratic societies and institutions,
with a view toward creating a more
stable world. All programs should be
two-way exchanges and involve
participants from the U.S. and foreign
countries.
Proposed projects should transform
institutional and individual
understanding of key issues, foster
dialogue, share expertise, and develop
capacity. Through these people-topeople exchanges, the Bureau seeks to
break down stereotypes that divide
peoples, to promote good governance
and economic growth, to contribute to
conflict prevention and management,
and to build respect for cultural
expression and identity in the world.
Projects should be structured to allow
American professionals and their
international counterparts in eligible
countries to develop a common dialogue
for dealing with shared challenges and
concerns. Projects should include
current or potential leaders who will
effect positive change in their
communities.
Applicants may not submit more than
one proposal per theme in this
competition. Also, applicants may not
include countries not eligible under a
specific theme designated in the RFGP.
Proposals that do so will be declared
technically ineligible and will receive
no further consideration in the review
process. For the purposes of this
competition, eligible regions are Africa,
East Asia, Europe, the Near East, North
Africa, South Central Asia, and the
Western Hemisphere. No guarantee is
made or implied that grants will be
awarded in all themes and for all
countries listed.
