Opportunity Information: Apply for PAS MTY 2021 01

The U.S. Department of State, through the Public Affairs Section (PAS) at the United States Consulate General in Monterrey, opened a discretionary public diplomacy grant competition called "Public diplomacy grant program - Empowering communities through technology and education" (Funding Opportunity Number: PAS MTY 2021 01). The program is aimed at supporting projects led by civil society organizations that advance community empowerment through technology- and education-focused activities, aligning broadly with science, technology, and research/development-oriented public engagement. The geographic focus is northern and north-central Mexico, specifically the states of Coahuila, Durango, Nuevo Leon, San Luis Potosi, Tamaulipas, and Zacatecas.

The opportunity is structured as a grant (not a contract), with an award ceiling of USD 25,000 per award and an expectation of up to 15 total awards. It was posted on February 19, 2021, with an original application deadline of March 19, 2021. The federal assistance listing associated with this opportunity is CFDA 19.040, which corresponds to U.S. Department of State public diplomacy programs.

Eligibility is directed to nonprofit entities that do not have U.S. IRS 501(c)(3) status, excluding institutions of higher education. In practice, this framing typically points to local or non-U.S. civil society organizations that can operate in the target states and implement public-facing programming consistent with U.S. public diplomacy goals.

A key implementation condition is the format flexibility paired with COVID-19 compliance requirements. Projects may be delivered fully virtually, or through a hybrid model combining virtual and in-person components, but any in-person activities are only allowed when local COVID-19 contingency guidelines permit them and are strictly followed. This means proposals are expected to be designed with practical contingency planning in mind, ensuring continuity through virtual delivery if public health conditions restrict gatherings or travel.

Overall, the grant supports relatively small, community-oriented public diplomacy initiatives centered on technology and education, implemented by eligible civil society organizations in the listed Mexican states, with clear emphasis on responsible, guideline-compliant programming during the pandemic period.
