Description
The U.S. Mission to Ghana, through its Public Diplomacy Grants/Small Grants Program, is soliciting proposals for projects that strengthen U.S.-Ghana bilateral relations and advance U.S. foreign policy objectives in Ghana and West Africa. This program funds initiatives that foster economic and commercial engagement, support law enforcement collaboration, counter malign actors, and promote Ghana’s self-sustainability. Target audiences include youth, students, young professionals, opinion leaders, media professionals, and partner organizations such as NGOs, think tanks, and educational institutions. Projects should demonstrate measurable contributions to U.S. policy goals and enhance America’s reputation among Ghanaian partners and the public.
