Cultural Preservation of Historic Sites and Monuments (Built Heritage): The Public Affairs Section (PAS) of the U.S. Embassy in Kabul, Afghanistan, is pleased to announce an open competition for eligible organizations to submit applications to carry out a program to document and preserve Afghanistan's built heritage, including historic sites and monuments. Proposals are required to include an educational component such as internship activities, educational outreach, capacity building, or on-site heritage management training of students and young professionals. Proposals must include a well-defined plan to raise public awareness of Afghan heritage, especially among youth, and a sustainability plan.

Project activities must include building cultural preservation skills, supporting long-term stewardship of heritage, and providing educational outreach to underserved communities.
