Moscow American Center Program

The U.S. Embassy in Moscow invites proposal submissions for a cooperative agreement to assist in providing administrative, technical, and programmatic support for the American Center program. The American Center is a technology-forward, welcoming, and engaging environment where Embassy personnel, U.S. visitors, and implementing partners connect with Russians, especially young leaders and young professionals, to inspire dialogue on issues that matter most to U.S.-Russia relations.
