- Grant Description
- The Youth Programs Division, Office of Citizen Exchanges, of the Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs announces an open competition for the new U.S.-Russia Virtual Science Challenge for Youth under the Global Connections and Exchange Program. Public and private non-profit organizations meeting the provisions described in Internal Revenue Code section 26 USC 501(c)(3) may submit proposals to conduct a program that will use connective technologies to increase scientific collaboration between American and Russian secondary school students. Bi-national teams will work together in a joint project to solve a global science problem using online tools, videoconferencing, virtual workshops, and other advanced methods of communication. The projects may culminate in a virtual science fair attended by students around the world. The engagement of private sector partners and specific plans to create a sustainable program after the fair also distinguish this program.
