Description
The U.S. Embassy in Oslo is seeking proposals for its Small Grants Program, which aims to support projects that promote U.S.-Norway relations. The program will support a variety of projects, including academic and professional lectures, artistic and cultural workshops, and cultural heritage conservation programs. The proposed projects should include an American cultural element and have a public outreach component. The program has a total available funding of approximately $100,000, and the maximum award for each project is $24,000. The project duration should be 12 months or less.
Key aspects of the program include:
• Addressing global security challenges and increasing understanding of the NATO alliance
• Engaging Norwegians on Arctic issues, with a priority on youth, entrepreneurship, and technology
• Increasing co-operation focused on the green transition and tackling climate change
• Partnering with Norwegian government, business, media, and civil society to counter growing malign influences in the media
• Promoting diversity and inclusion and showcasing the diversity of the United States
• Preserving and conserving cultural heritage, especially the heritage of indigenous cultures and/or historically disadvantaged minorities
• Informing Norwegian youth about shared values
• Promoting U.S. higher education
