Opportunity Information: Apply for CKY PAS FY16 001
The U.S. Embassy in Guinea announced a discretionary grant funding opportunity under the Ambassadors Fund for Cultural Preservation (AFCP), a U.S. Government program that finances projects aimed at safeguarding cultural heritage in Guinea and in more than 100 countries worldwide. The opportunity is administered by the Bureau of African Affairs and, for FY 2016, is contingent on the availability of funds. Applicants were directed to follow detailed instructions in the full announcement provided through the "Related Documents" section of the posting.
The core purpose of AFCP is to preserve tangible and intangible cultural heritage. On the tangible side, the program can support activities such as restoring ancient or historic buildings, conserving and protecting important archaeological sites, and assessing or stabilizing rare manuscripts, archives, and museum collections. On the intangible side, it can also fund efforts to document forms of traditional cultural expression that are at risk of disappearing, including traditional craft techniques and indigenous languages. The underlying rationale is that cultural heritage serves as a lasting record of human history and shared experience; by supporting preservation work, the United States signals respect for the cultures and histories of partner countries.
Eligibility is aimed at reputable, accountable, non-commercial organizations with demonstrated capacity to manage cultural preservation work. Examples given include non-governmental organizations, museums, ministries of culture, and similar institutions or organizations. A key requirement is that applicants must be able to show relevant experience and the operational ability to carry out and manage a preservation project responsibly. The embassy plays an active role in vetting prospective grantees for eligibility, suitability, and a track record of reputable performance in cultural preservation or closely related activities, and it must also confirm that applicants can receive U.S. Government funding consistent with AFCP policies.
From the posted opportunity details, the funding instrument is a grant, the activity category is Arts, and the CFDA number listed is 19.025. The opportunity number is CKY PAS FY16 001. The announcement was created on December 21, 2015, with an original application closing date of January 11, 2016. The maximum possible award amount (award ceiling) is $200,000. The posting does not clearly state the number of expected awards in the provided extract, but it indicates that awards would be made under the AFCP framework subject to FY 2016 funding availability.Apply for CKY PAS FY16 001
