Opportunity Information: Apply for PAS NEWZEALAND 2022 04
The Young Pacific Leaders Regional Workshop: Civic Education for Good Governance, Anti-Corruption, and Integrity is a U.S. Department of State funding opportunity run through the U.S. Mission to New Zealand Public Affairs Section (PAS). It seeks organizations to design and deliver a Young Pacific Leaders (YPL) regional program focused on strengthening good governance, transparency, integrity, and accountability across the Pacific through youth civic participation and civic education. The award mechanism is a cooperative agreement, meaning the implementing organization should expect close coordination with the U.S. government during planning and delivery. Funding is contingent on availability, with an award ceiling of $250,000 and an anticipated total of up to 10 awards.
At the center of the opportunity is a six-day, in-person workshop (including travel days) planned for Suva, Fiji, in the second half of 2023 (July to December). The workshop is intended to convene roughly 100 emerging leaders between the ages of 20 and 35 who are already engaged in civic education or related initiatives in their home contexts. The overall purpose is practical capacity-building: participants should leave with stronger competencies to develop, implement, and sustain initiatives or campaigns that promote accountable governance and reduce corruption risks by improving civic knowledge, participation, and oversight.
This workshop sits within the broader Young Pacific Leaders initiative, described as the U.S. government’s signature effort to engage emerging leaders across the Pacific. YPL is designed to build a durable cross-border network that collaborates across four pillars: education, environment and resource management, civic engagement, and economic and social development. In that larger framing, this specific regional workshop advances the civic engagement pillar and aligns with U.S. Embassy New Zealand priorities around supporting resilient, accountable democratic institutions that actively engage civil society at local, regional, and national levels.
The program content is expected to go beyond lectures and include in-depth discussion and experiential learning led by experts from both the Pacific region and the United States. Key thematic areas include civic education methods, youth civic participation strategies, and concrete tools for mobilizing stakeholders and executing effective projects or public-facing campaigns tied to governance and integrity. The solicitation also emphasizes that participants should be supported and encouraged to collaborate with one another across borders and to coordinate at home with government agencies at multiple levels, business development institutions, community organizations, and youth groups, so the workshop translates into action rather than remaining a one-time event.
A notable deliverable is the creation and maintenance of a virtual network of emerging leaders to sustain collaboration after the in-person convening. The opportunity also leaves room for a follow-on activity after the workshop to capture lessons learned, document successes and challenges from participant-led efforts, and potentially produce a toolkit of best practices for cross-border collaboration on civic education, anti-corruption, and integrity work. This positions the project as both a convening and a longer-term capacity and network-building effort.
Eligible applicants include public and state-controlled institutions of higher education, private institutions of higher education, and nonprofit organizations (including both 501(c)(3) and non-501(c)(3) entities). The opportunity is listed under CFDA 19.040. The original posting date is July 13, 2022, with an original application deadline of August 13, 2022, under Funding Opportunity Number PAS NEWZEALAND 2022 04.
The intended participant pool covers young leaders who are citizens and residents of a wide set of Pacific countries and territories, including Australia, Cook Islands, Fiji, Federated States of Micronesia, French Polynesia, Kiribati, Marshall Islands, Nauru, New Caledonia, New Zealand, Niue, Palau, Papua New Guinea, Samoa, Solomon Islands, Tonga, Tuvalu, Vanuatu, and Wallis and Futuna, along with U.S. partners from the American-affiliated Pacific (American Samoa, Guam, the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands, and Hawaii). The overall goal is to strengthen leadership capabilities and relationships across the region while equipping participants with practical approaches to advance good governance and integrity through youth-driven civic education and engagement.Apply for PAS NEWZEALAND 2022 04
