Opportunity Information: Apply for 007 FY2019

The Youth Leadership and Teacher Professional Development Program with Bosnia and Herzegovina - US Partner is a U.S. Department of State-funded grant opportunity administered through the U.S. Mission to Bosnia and Herzegovina, specifically the Office of Public Affairs (OPA) at the U.S. Embassy in Sarajevo. It is a discretionary grant (Funding Opportunity Number 007 FY2019, CFDA 19.900) intended to support an intensive educational exchange in the United States focused on civic education, community service, and youth leadership development. The program is structured as a three- to four-week exchange taking place in fall 2020, bringing together a delegation of 21 participants from Bosnia and Herzegovina made up of 18 high school students and three adult educators (teachers) selected from specific cities in the country.

At its core, the exchange is designed to build practical knowledge and skills that participants can apply when they return home. The content is framed as a broad, hands-on survey of civic learning and democratic participation, emphasizing how communities organize, how citizens engage in public life, and how young people can take leadership roles through service and local initiatives. Rather than being purely classroom-based, the program blends structured learning with real-world exposure. Participants are expected to take part in workshops and facilitated discussions, engage in community service activities, and meet with local community leaders to see how civic institutions and community organizations function in the U.S. context.

A defining feature of the program is substantive interaction, both within the Bosnian and Herzegovinian delegation and with American peers. The exchange is built to create sustained contact through discussion groups, joint activities, and community-based experiences, giving students and teachers opportunities to compare perspectives, practice leadership and collaboration, and strengthen cross-cultural understanding. The inclusion of teachers alongside students also signals a dual purpose: supporting youth leadership growth while also strengthening educators professional capacity so they can reinforce civic engagement and leadership development in their schools and communities after the exchange ends.

Funding for the opportunity has an award ceiling of $120,000, with up to three awards anticipated. The original application closing date listed for the competition was July 31, 2019, and the opportunity was created on June 28, 2019. Eligibility is categorized broadly under "Others" with additional eligibility details referenced in the full announcement, indicating that the competition is likely aimed at organizations capable of designing and implementing an international exchange program, coordinating participant support, and delivering substantive educational and community engagement programming aligned with the embassy objectives.
