FY 2015 Youth Award for Change and Tolerance (Y-ACT)

 

The Office of Citizen Exchanges, Youth Programs Division, of the Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs (ECA) announces an open competition for a new program, the FY 2015 Youth Award for Change and Tolerance (Y-ACT). Y-ACT honors and supports international youth that have done exceptional work to create positive and impactful social change in challenging environments. U.S. public and private non-profit organizations meeting the provisions described in Internal Revenue Code section 26 USC 501(c) (3) may submit proposals to provide approximately ten youth, ages 16 to 22, with a three-week exchange program in the United States focused on the primary themes of peacebuilding and conflict prevention, including pluralism, social change and tolerance, democracy and governance, and advanced leadership development. The exchange will take place in April 2016 and include an award ceremony with Senior Department of State officials and accompanying activities related to program themes. It is the Bureau's intent to award one cooperative agreement for an estimated total of approximately $400,000.
