FY 2024 Benjamin Franklin Transatlantic Fellowship: The Office of Citizen Exchanges, Youth Programs Division, of the Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs (ECA), announces an open competition for the FY 2024 Benjamin Franklin Transatlantic Fellowship.

The program will engage approximately 45 teenagers (ages 16-18) from Europe and 10 teenagers from the United States. U.S. embassies throughout Europe will recruit and select the foreign participants, and the U.S. award recipient will recruit and select the American participants. The program will focus on transatlantic relations, leadership development, critical thinking, diplomacy, community activism, and the media as ways that young adults can unite around common goals. Support for individual or small group follow-on projects in the participants’ home communities will complete the program. Please see the full announcement for additional details.
