U.S. DEPARTMENT OF STATE U.S. Mission to Saudi Arabia – Embassy Riyadh Notice of Funding Opportunity Funding Opportunity Title: Quincy Virtual U.S. Higher Education Fairs Funding Opportunity Number: DOS-SAU-PD-04 Announcement Type: Cooperative Agreement Deadline for Applications: August 23, 2021 at 12:00 a.m. (EDT) Assistance Listing Number: 19.432 Award Ceiling: U.S. $50,000 Award Floor: U.S. $30,000 Federal Agency Contact: Mario Crifo, Grants Officer Email: RiyadhGrants@state.gov A. PROGRAM DESCRIPTION The U.S. Department of State’s Mission to Saudi Arabia announces an open competition for organizations to submit applications to carry out a program to conduct three virtual U.S. higher education fairs for students and other education stakeholders in Saudi Arabia. Please follow all instructions below. Program Objectives: Maintaining Saudi student mobility and access to the U.S. higher education system is a primary strategy for promoting long-term mutual understanding between the people of Saudi Arabia and the United States. It is also a key contributor to Saudi Arabia’s ambitions for economic transformation including youth and women’s workforce development. These policies promote regional stability and greater bilateral economic opportunities. During the COVID-19 pandemic, opportunities for Saudi students, parents, and education professionals to engage in-person with officials from U.S. higher education institutions (HEIs) have been severely restricted. The “Quincy Virtual U.S. Higher Education Fairs” program proposes to fill this gap by offering three virtual events that will allow Saudi students and other stakeholders to engage directly and individually with U.S. HEI representatives. This engagement is intended to provide education and career advising, and promote information exchange on undergraduate, graduate, and training programs available at individual institutions. The events also aim to provide virtual networking opportunities for U.S. HEIs with the leadership of Saudi government and private scholarship programs to learn about program requirements and promote diverse U.S. study opportunities for Saudi scholarship recipients. This program aims to offer three engagement opportunities in a virtual format during Fall 2021 and Spring 2022 with thematic focus on fields of study related to Saudi Arabia’s Vision2030 initiatives. A successful proposal will include the following activities: Program Elements · The grantee will offer three (3) college fairs for U.S. HEIs and Saudi students/education stakeholders scheduled in the Fall 2021 and Spring 2022 to include: o A general fair for approximately 75 U.S. HEIs offering programs in diverse fields of study scheduled in conjunction with International Education Week in November. o A sector specific fair for approximately 50 U.S. HEIs offering programs in fields of study related to tourism, hospitality management, culture and cultural preservation, arts management, and visual and performing arts practice. o A sector specific fair for approximately 50 U.S. HEIs offering programs in allied health sciences including nursing, dentistry, physical and occupational therapy, respiratory therapy, nuclear medicine, etc. · The grantee will offer a pre-fair program of workshops and panel discussions for each of three fairs. Topics may include: o The 5 steps to U.S study, o Financial aid opportunities for international students o Making the most of a virtual college fair; navigating the online fair platform, o Visa requirements and process, o Roundtable discussion for HEI representatives with Saudi scholarship program managers, and o Other topics proposed by the grantee or by HEI participants. · The grantee should identify speakers for the proposed workshops from among the conference HEI participants or from other sources as appropriate. Some speakers may be provided by the U.S. Mission. Technology Elements · The grantee will maintain a system for registering participants, including U.S. HEI representatives, Saudi students and other Saudi education stakeholders, and other participants. · The grantee will maintain a system for collecting registration fees by U.S. HEI representatives. · The grantee will maintain and manage a conference platform(s) that allows for restricted access by registered participants; moderated group meetings and workshops; and individual interaction between HEI representatives and Saudi participants. The platform will allow HEI participants to make data files available for download to conference participants. · Prior to each event, the grantee will schedule and manage a technical walk-through and test with conference speakers. · The grantee will record workshops and roundtable discussions and make these available for public review on a website or other publicly accessible platform for at least three (3) months following the last fair. Communications Elements · The grantee will design and draft promotional announcements for each of the fairs to solicit registrations by U.S. HEIs and Saudi stakeholders. These announcements may be distributed by the grantee, the U.S. Mission to Saudi Arabia, the Department of State, a/o the EducationUSA program of the Bureau of Education and Cultural Affairs. · The grantee will design a social media and email communications campaign to generate interest leading up to each fair and maximize participation by Saudi stakeholders. The grantee will provide draft communications materials to the U.S. Mission for distribution through their channels. Reporting Elements · Through the registration data and post conference surveys, the grantee will collect data for use in reporting on the outcomes and effectiveness of the activity. · The grantee will provide short summary reports on participation following each event, and a fuller analysis report at the conclusion of the grant period. · The grantee will provide raw data collected to the U.S. Mission, including participant contact information. Plan for Disposition of Registration Fees · The primary purpose of the activity is not to generate revenue. However, fees to HEI registrants are appropriate to ensure selection of a limited number of participants most committed to recruitment of Saudi students. With this in mind, the proposal should recommend a fee structure for HEI participants and indicate approximately how much in fee revenue is expected. · Applicants may indicate brief outline ideas for how those funds may be used if they are not returned to the U.S. government. Participants and Audiences: · Prospective Saudi Arabian undergraduate and graduate students · Parents of prospective students · College counselors and advisors · Saudi Arabian education officials B. FEDERAL AWARD INFORMATION This notice is subject to availability of funding. Length of performance period: 9 – 12 months Number of awards anticipated: 1 award (dependent on amounts) Award amounts: awards may range from a minimum of $30,000 to a maximum of $50,000 Type of Funding: FY2021 Fulbright-Hays Anticipated program start date: August 1, 2021 Funding Instrument Type: Cooperative agreement. Substantial Involvement: The U.S. Mission to Saudi Arabia will be substantially involved in the execution of this program in the following ways: · Coordination and approval on the timing of the three fairs and the pre-conference workshops. · Coordination with Saudi institutional stakeholders and conference co-sponsors. · Approval of workshop session topics and speakers. · Approval of promotional materials and communications prior to release, including logos and branding. · Approval of fees assessed to HEI participants. · Coordination on participant data to be collected and reported through registration and surveys. Additional information is available in the Notice of Funding Opportunity in the Files section of this announcement.

Note: Each funding opportunity description is a synopsis of information in the Federal Register application notice. For specific information about eligibility, please see the official application notice. The official version of this document is the document published in the Federal Register. Free Internet access to the official edition of the Federal Register and the Code of Federal Regulations is available on GPO Access at: http://www.access.gpo.gov/nara/index.html. Please review the official application notice for pre-application and application requirements, application submission information, performance measures, priorities and program contact information. For the addresses for obtaining and submitting an application, please refer to our Common Instructions for Applicants to Department of Education Discretionary Grant Programs, published in the Federal Register on February 13, 2019 (84 FR 3768), or at www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2019-02-13/pdf/2019-02206.pdf. Purpose of Program: The EIR program, established under section 4611 of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act, as amended (ESEA), provides funding to create, develop, implement, replicate, or take to scale entrepreneurial, evidence-based (as defined in this notice), field-initiated innovations to improve student achievement and attainment for high-need students; and rigorously evaluate such innovations. The EIR program is designed to generate and validate solutions to persistent education challenges and to support the expansion of those solutions to serve substantially larger numbers of students. The central design element of the EIR program is its multi-tier structure that links the amount of funding an applicant may receive to the quality of the evidence supporting the efficacy of the proposed project, with the expectation that projects that build this evidence will advance through EIR’s grant tiers: “Early-phase,” “Mid-phase,” and “Expansion.” The Department awards three types of grants under this program: “Early-phase” grants, “Mid-phase” grants, and “Expansion” grants. These grants differ in terms of the level of prior evidence of effectiveness required for consideration for funding, the expectations regarding the kind of evidence and information funded projects should produce, the level of scale funded projects should reach, and, consequently, the amount of funding available to support each type of project. Early-phase grants must demonstrate a rationale (as defined in this notice). The Department expects that Early-phase grants will be used to fund the development, implementation, and feasibility testing of a program, which prior research suggests has promise, for the purpose of determining whether the program can successfully improve student achievement and attainment for high need students. These Early-phase grants are not intended simply to implement established practices in additional locations or address needs that are unique to one particular context. The goal is to determine whether and in what ways relatively newer practices can improve student achievement and attainment for high-need students. This notice invites applications for Early-phase grants only. The notices inviting applications for Mid-Phase and Expansion grants were published in the Federal Register on June 7, 2021 (86 FR 30292 and 86 FR 30302, respectively). Assistance Listing Number (ALN): 84.411C.

Allocations for these eligible IHEs will be calculated according to the formulas in ARP section 2003(2) and CRRSAA section 314(a)(2). Under ARP section 2003, grant awards under this program may be used to (1) defray expenses associated with the coronavirus, including lost revenue, reimbursement for expenses already incurred, technology costs associated with transitioning to distance education, faculty and staff training, and payroll; and (2) provide financial aid grants to students (including students exclusively enrolled in distance education), which may be used for any component of the student’s cost of attendance or emergency costs due to the coronavirus, such as tuition, food, housing, health care, mental health care, or child care. In making financial aid grants to students, an institution must prioritize grants to students with exceptional need, such as Pell recipient students. IHEs are urged to make financial aid grants to students to the maximum extent possible. Additionally, under ARP section 2003(5), IHEs must use a portion of their funds under ALN 84.425M to (1) implement evidence-based practices to monitor and suppress coronavirus in accordance with the public health guidelines; and (2) conduct direct outreach to financial aid applicants about the opportunity to receive a financial aid adjustment due to recent unemployment status or other changes in financial circumstances as described in section 479A of the HEA (20 U.S.C. 1087tt). The Department will award supplemental funds to eligible IHEs that received a section 314(a)(2) award under the CRRSAA, ALN 84.425M (identified by a Grant Award beginning with P425Mxx). No action is required by eligible institutions to receive these supplemental awards. The project director identified on the most current Grant Award Notification (GAN) will automatically receive an email indicating a supplemental award has been made to your institution. Please note that drawing down any amount of these supplemental funds constitutes an institution’s acceptance of the new ARP terms and conditions and a new Supplemental Agreement, which are attached to this notice for reference. IHEs that have not yet complied with the reporting requirements of the HEERF may receive delayed supplemental ARP (a)(2) awards and/or may receive awards with a restriction on the ability to drawdown those awarded funds (route payment status) until the institution has satisfied its HEERF reporting obligations. IHEs that did not receive a CRRSAA section 314(a)(2) award but are on the Department’s section 2003(2) ARP SIP Allocation Table may apply for and receive an ARP (a)(2) SIP grant award.

Note: Each funding opportunity description is a synopsis of information in the Federal Register application notice. For specific information about eligibility, please see the official application notice. The official version of this document is the document published in the Federal Register. Free Internet access to the official edition of the Federal Register and the Code of Federal Regulations is available on GPO Access at: http://www.access.gpo.gov/nara/index.html. Please review the official application notice for pre-application and application requirements, application submission information, performance measures, priorities and program contact information. For the addresses for obtaining and submitting an application, please refer to our Common Instructions for Applicants to Department of Education Discretionary Grant Programs, published in the Federal Register on February 13, 2019 (84 FR 3768), or at www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2019-02-13/pdf/2019-02206.pdf. Purpose of Program: The purpose of this program is to support a National Center for Information and Technical Support for Postsecondary Students with Disabilities (the Center) to provide technical assistance and information on best and promising practices for students with disabilities as they transition to or attend postsecondary education. Institutions of higher education (IHEs), as well as elementary and secondary schools, have legal obligations under two civil rights laws prohibiting disability discrimination, Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, as amended (Section 504) (29 U.S.C. 794), and the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990, as amended (ADA) (42 U.S.C. 12101-12213). The technical assistance and information provided by the Center can help students, parents, and educational officials in determining how to meet these obligations and ensure the rights of students with disabilities. In particular, the Center can assist students with disabilities and their families in understanding that in IHEs, students with disabilities have different rights and protections than they had in secondary school under Section 504 and the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA), 20 U.S.C. 1400 et seq. Students with disabilities and their parents need to understand the differences in these rights and responsibilities as students with disabilities enter college and pursue postsecondary education. Specifically, unlike students in secondary school, postsecondary students with disabilities are responsible for requesting the academic adjustments, auxiliary aids and services, and other accommodations they need to have equal educational opportunity and are expected to comply with reasonable procedures that an IHE may have concerning documentation of disability and the need for accommodations under Section 504 and the ADA. Assistance Listing Number (ALN): 84.116D.

*** PLEASE READ FULL ANNOUNCEMENT (see Related Documents) BEFORE APPLYING *** Submissions must be emailed to PretoriaGrants@state.gov, not uploaded to grants.gov. The Public Affairs Section (PAS) of the U.S. Mission to South Africa of the U.S. Department of State announces an open competition for organizations to submit applications to carry out projects in one of six categories outlined in the Project Objectives below. All project proposals must strengthen ties and build relationships between the United States and South Africa and must have a strong, central, American element, or connection with American expert/s, organization/s, or institution/s (separate and beyond any involvement with the U.S. Mission or its American Corners or USG exchange program alumni) and have as a primary goal the promotion of increased understanding of U.S. values, perspectives, and policies and relationship building between Americans and South Africans. Priority Region: Project activities must take place in South Africa and be directed at South African audiences/participants. PAS welcomes proposals that reach multiple provinces or engage in areas outside the metropolitan areas of Pretoria, Johannesburg, Durban, and Cape Town, including townships and other historically underserved areas. American Content: Successful proposals will include a clear description of how American content will be substantively and meaningfully incorporated in projects. American content may include the use of curricula from a U.S.-based institution, collaboration with an American subject matter expert, or incorporation of U.S. culture, history, or society. We encourage proposals that explain how that American content builds ties with South African audiences. Project Objectives: PAS is seeking proposals in the following six categories. An organization may only submit one application and must identify the specific category. 1. Combatting Climate Change PAS seeks proposals that will create partnerships between Americans and South Africans to generate awareness and promote shared action/collaboration on climate change and the evolving climate crisis. Project proposals in this category should identify a specific audience – such as youth, students, educators, entrepreneurs, etc. – that it will reach as well as how the project plans to measure impact during the award’s performance period. Short-term impact may lay the groundwork for longer-term outcomes. Proposals should target a specific audience and clearly identify project participants. PAS welcomes proposals that exploit connections between governmental organizations, such as the U.S. National Park Service and the South African National Parks, or between U.S. and South African civil society, including higher education institutions. Priority project areas include: sustainable waste management and recycling; urban and peri-urban clean water solutions; countering wildlife trafficking; climate adaptation; urban greening, and; healthy oceans. 2. Improving Journalism Training PAS seeks proposals that strengthen journalism skills in fields such as investigative reporting, health/science/environmental journalism, and legal reporting, particularly among professional journalists, editors, and contributors to community media outlets. We will favorably note proposals that aim to establish partnerships between media outlets and non-governmental, educational, and/or civil society institutions in South Africa. Proposals should include: a series of engagements with participants that includes training in reporting skills such as critical thinking, sourcing, disinformation, and ethics; multiple “field” exercises to encourage these skills in real world settings; a focus on the program’s sustainability, including follow-up programming with participants and the possibility of expanding the program in the future. 3. Entrepreneurship and Intrapreneurship: Expanding Economic Opportunities for Youth PAS seeks proposals that break down barriers faced by South Africa’s promising young entrepreneurs by leveraging American business and management approaches to help youth develop the necessary networking, marketing, and investment skills to succeed in the economy. In addition to increasing the capacity of entrepreneurs to open new businesses, we are seeking applications that foster increased "intrapreneurship," a system wherein the principles of entrepreneurship are practiced within existing organizations. The development of intrapreneurs creates opportunities to innovate new ideas, products, and processes within an organization that can lead to the adoption of best practices, decreases in corruption, and increased growth while preparing emerging leaders for greater responsibility within their organizations or to launch startups in the future that will benefit U.S.-South African economic ties. 4. Promoting Equity, Social Justice, and Social Cohesion PAS seeks proposals that build on shared American and South African priorities to promote respect for the human rights and advance racial equity, social justice, and social cohesion. We encourage proposals that focus on outreach to historically marginalized groups. Preference will be given to proposals that foster dialogue, encourage civic engagement, and increase understanding about the historical injustices in the United States and South Africa to make concrete connections with contemporary applications of the lessons learned from those histories. Priority project areas include: conducting outreach to underscore connections between the struggle for equality of marginalized groups in the United States and South Africa’s liberation struggle; and exploring the literature, culture, and histories of marginalized groups in the United States with South African audiences. Intended audiences should include: high school and university students; professors; journalists; policy makers; or youth (ages 15-35). Proposals may incorporate use of sports or the art that addresses the American experience that is relevant to the South African experience. Competitive proposals will outline how the activities will resonate with South African audiences. 5. A Global Crisis: Trafficking in Persons South Africa is a country of origin, destination, and transit for victims of trafficking in persons (TIP). PAS seeks proposals that generate awareness of TIP-related issues in South Africa and of concerns noted in the U.S. Department of State’s 2021 Trafficking in Persons Report for South Africa, with the goal of increasing public knowledge, understanding, and calls for action on this challenging issue. Proposals should aim to improve the public’s ability to recognize and report TIP, to identify TIP risk factors, and to reduce demand for labor and sexual exploitation. Priority project areas include: the lack of public awareness of trafficking crimes; available resources for victims; cultural practices that increase trafficking vulnerability; the lack of reporting of trafficking crimes; and official indifference or complicity. Successful proposals will target clear audiences in South Africa and explain the relevance of those audiences to the issue at hand. Prospective grant partners will preferably have existing relationships with or the capacity to partner with relevant South African government agencies. 6. Expanding the University Partnership Initiative PAS seeks proposals that strengthen existing ties and foster new collaborations between U.S. and South African higher education institutions under the University Partnership Initiative (UPI). Proposals should address the option to scale to a greater level pending funds availability and should address potential significant involvement by PAS. Collaboration with existing U.S. Mission South Africa programs or alumni of USG-funded exchanges is encouraged. Priority project areas include: promoting U.S.- South Africa faculty and student exchanges, particularly the development of dual degree programs that have South Africans complete their studies locally and address South Africa’s shortage of qualified academic staff; developing the use of instructional technology to increase access to educational opportunities, including in the context of challenges like the COVID-19 pandemic; facilitating early-career training for academics; joint research, especially in agriculture, food security, health, and STEM; providing training and transfer skills in all aspects of university and community college administration through subject-matter exchange programs; exploring public-private partnerships, with an emphasis on commercialization, technology transfer, and job creation. Intended audiences should include: South African university and community college students; university administrators; or high school teachers and students who use materials developed by universities. Proposals should address how relationships between institutions will be sustained after U.S. government-funded efforts end. Proposals that develop linkages between South African technical universities and their American counterparts are strongly encouraged. PLEASE NOTE: The following types of projects are not eligible for funding: Projects relating to partisan political activity; Charitable or development activities; Construction projects; Projects that support specific religious activities; Fund-raising campaigns; Lobbying for specific legislation or projects; Projects intended primarily for the growth or institutional development of the organization; Projects that duplicate existing projects; Travel to the United States for family or social purposes; Travel to the United States for purposes of amplifying South Africa cultural initiatives; Travel to the United States for purposes unconnected to a larger project or initiative; Scholarships or tuition assistance; Events of a purely social nature; Prizes and competition awards without a programmatic linkage.
