Type of Request: Existing collection in use without an OMB control number. Abstract: The International Agricultural Education Fellowship Program (IAEFP) was established in 2020. IAEFP provides opportunities to eligible U.S. citizens to assist developing countries in establishing school-based agricultural education and youth extension programs under the Agriculture Improvement Act of 2018. The intention of the IAEFP is to develop globally minded United States agriculturalists with experience living abroad, focus on meeting the food and fiber needs of the domestic population of eligible countries, and strengthen and enhance trade linkages between eligible countries and the United States agricultural industry. To achieve its objectives, IAEFP relies on the solicitation for qualified program applicants through a written application. FAS Posts across Africa provide this application to potential Fellows to assist in determining the adequacy of their candidacy alongside FAS Washington. The application is designed to capture the professional status of the applicant, the applicant’s personal contact information, and the applicant’s suitability for the program. Thus, the IAEFP application is an integral tool to Fellowship Programs Division and FAS’ strategic goals at large.
