Transatlantic Partnership Program

The Transatlantic Partnership Program aims to strengthen the U.S.-German partnership and democratic principles by supporting forward-looking initiatives. The program seeks innovative projects in areas such as sports, science, and space; countering anti-Semitism and supporting freedom of speech; and measuring the long-term impact of exchange programs. Proposals should include strong U.S. components, clearly defined German target audiences, and a strategic implementation plan. The program encourages registered not-for-profit organizations, think tanks, non-governmental organizations, and educational institutions to apply. • The program supports projects that deepen mutual understanding, foster collaboration, and engage German audiences in meaningful dialogue with the United States. • Proposals should outline measurable objectives to increase awareness, shape attitudes, strengthen skills, or build sustainable networks that support U.S.-German cooperation. • The program has an estimated funding of $400,000, with an award ceiling of $150,000 and an award floor of $5,000. • Applications may be submitted at any time during the fiscal year and will be reviewed on a rolling basis.
