Opportunity Information: Apply for FY22 PAS BRAZIL 001
Edital de Projetos EUA-Brasil (FY22 PAS BRAZIL 001) is a U.S. Mission to Brazil public diplomacy grant opportunity that funds programs carried out in Brazil, with project selection handled locally by the U.S. Embassy or the relevant U.S. Consulate based on where the activities will take place. U.S.-based organizations can apply on their own or partner with a Brazilian individual or organization, but the proposal must align with the specific thematic priorities set by the Embassy, Consulate, or Branch Office that has jurisdiction over the target location. In practical terms, applicants need to choose the correct U.S. post for their project site and tailor the proposal to that post's stated priorities, because projects are reviewed and chosen within that regional consular district rather than through a single centralized national competition.
Geographic responsibility is divided across several posts. The U.S. Embassy in Brasilia covers Acre, Amapa, Amazonas, Goias, Mato Grosso, Para, Rondonia, Roraima, Tocantins, and the Federal District. The Consulate General in Porto Alegre covers Rio Grande do Sul and Santa Catarina. The Consulate General in Recife covers Alagoas, Ceara, Maranhao, Paraiba, Piaui, Rio Grande do Norte, Pernambuco, and Sergipe. The Consulate General in Rio de Janeiro covers Rio de Janeiro, Espirito Santo, and Bahia. The Consulate General in Sao Paulo covers Sao Paulo, Parana, and Mato Grosso do Sul. The Embassy Branch Office in Belo Horizonte covers Minas Gerais. The post with jurisdiction over the state where the project will be implemented is the one that evaluates the application and ultimately selects awards for that area.
Because the opportunity was issued in the context of COVID-19, proposals are expected to include a contingency plan that can shift programming to virtual options if needed. Grantees are expected to be prepared to deliver activities in-person, in a hybrid format, or fully virtually depending on public health restrictions at the time of implementation. This means applicants should build realistic operational flexibility into timelines, deliverables, and budgets, rather than assuming travel and large gatherings will always be possible.
Funding comes from FY 2022 Public Diplomacy funds and is authorized under the Smith-Mundt Act and the Fulbright-Hays Act. Awards may be issued as a Grant, Cooperative Agreement, Fixed Amount Award, or an individual grant, depending on the specific project and the U.S. government’s determination of the appropriate instrument. Total estimated funding across the opportunity is about USD 390,000 (subject to availability). Individual awards typically range from USD 2,000 up to USD 40,000, though applicants are instructed to follow any additional funding limitations set by the specific Embassy/Consulate/Branch Office. The Public Affairs Section (PAS) also notes it can choose to fund fewer or more projects, and can make smaller or larger awards than described if that serves U.S. government interests or if application quality/volume warrants it.
Projects are generally expected to run no longer than 12 months, with rare exceptions for longer durations depending on the program’s nature. Since awards depend on available federal funding, applicants are encouraged to propose flexible start dates, which can help accommodate administrative processing and changing conditions on the ground.
Eligibility is broad for non-commercial actors that can responsibly manage U.S. government grant funds. The opportunity encourages applications from civil society organizations, community representatives, think tanks, NGOs, academic institutions, governmental institutions, international organizations, and individuals. Ineligible applicants include for-profit/commercial firms, employees of the U.S. Embassy and Consulates in Brazil and their family members, and any entity listed as excluded/debarred in the System for Award Management (SAM), consistent with federal debarment and suspension rules (2 CFR 180 and related executive orders). All applicants must be able to receive and administer grant funding, which implies having basic financial controls and administrative capacity.
Cost sharing is not required, but it is encouraged. Applicants may strengthen proposals by bringing in outside support, either cash or in-kind contributions, and by using highly skilled volunteers as part of the cost-share strategy. If an applicant commits cost sharing in the proposal, it becomes an expectation of performance, so it should be stated clearly and realistically, including what sources are likely and how volunteer support would be used. Payment is handled at the discretion of the U.S. Mission, and funds may be disbursed in multiple installments; the Grants Officer sets the payment schedule at award time.
The application process is structured as a three-phase competition designed to screen concepts early and only request full proposals from the most promising applicants. Phase 1 requires submitting an initial online form in English, with the budget presented in U.S. dollars, using the link corresponding to the post that covers the project’s intended location. Submissions are reviewed by a Grants Review Committee for responsiveness to the announcement’s requirements and the post’s thematic priorities. Phase 2 is a virtual presentation and interview for those invited to advance; applicants can discuss their ideas and answer questions in English or Portuguese. Phase 3 is the full application package, requested only from applicants who pass the interview stage; invitees typically have two weeks after notification to submit the complete proposal by email to the post with jurisdiction, after which a final merit review determines awards.
Key reference details from the listing include the agency (U.S. Mission to Brazil), assistance listing/CFDA number 19.040, an award ceiling of USD 40,000, and an original closing date of April 4, 2022. Even with those administrative details, the main takeaway is that success depends on matching the right post, aligning tightly with that post’s priorities, presenting a feasible plan for delivery across in-person and virtual scenarios, and demonstrating the organizational capacity to manage U.S. government funds and reporting expectations within a roughly one-year project window.Apply for FY22 PAS BRAZIL 001
