Engaging U.S. Experts in Kosovo: The U.S. Embassy in Pristina, Kosovo announces an open competition for Kosovo-based organizations and institutions to submit applications to carry out programs that expand the exchange of ideas, information, and practices between the United States and Kosovo by bringing U.S. experts to Kosovo. Program Goal and Objectives: The overarching goal of the U.S. Expert Program is to support Kosovan organizations to develop, shape and promote a broad range of non-formal educational and cultural programs leading to Kosovo’s social and human capital development. The program provides a platform for exchanging ideas, information, and best practices through virtual and in-person interactions. The program seeks to bring U.S. experts and professionals to Kosovo to engage and share their American practices and perspectives with local audiences on a broad range of educational and cultural topics, thereby providing youth, emerging leaders, and established opinion makers with new and valuable insights they can apply to their lives and communities. Potential applicants are encouraged to focus on the following themes: · Facilitating non-formal educational and cultural activities, including music and arts · Providing skill building activities for youth from underserved communities · Supporting trust-building and interethnic collaboration activities among Kosovan communities. *The term ‘Underserved Communities’ is defined in the Executive Order on Advancing Racial Equity and Underserved Communities. Types of Activities and Mode of Delivery: The U.S. Expert Program provides opportunities for U.S. experts to engage with Kosovan audiences through, but not limited to, formal and non-formal cultural and educational activities, lectures, workshops, conferences, seminars, media appearances, and consultancy services. However, this program does not encompass teaching university courses or conducting research programs. For maximum impact, audience engagement is best achieved through a series of activities over an extended period; however, one-time events and short-term activities, such as conferences, may also be supported. The program accommodates both traveling and virtual experts and a blend of both, and applicants can request a single expert or a series of experts, subject to funding availability. Proposals should specify the preferred mode of engagement, whether traveling, virtual, or blended. · Traveling Programs: A U.S.-based expert travels to Kosovo to deliver lectures, act as a consultant, jointly develop a program, or facilitate workshops and seminars, as deemed appropriate and arranged by the hosting organization. · Virtual Programs: The U.S.-based expert engages with Kosovan audiences in real-time through virtual platforms. The expert may deliver the program remotely from within or outside the U.S. Virtual interactions can be tailored to be one-to-one, multi-point, or a combination, depending on the audience's nature and location. Please take into consideration the time difference when scheduling a virtual program. · Blended Programs: The U.S.-based expert travels to Kosovo and also conducts a portion of the program virtually.
