Social Entrepreneurship Program (SEP): The Public Diplomacy Section (PD) of the U.S. Office of Palestinian Affairs (OPA) invites Palestinian or American not-for-profit non-governmental organizations (NGOs), associations, non-profit higher education institutions, or non-profit social enterprises based in the West Bank, East Jerusalem, or Gaza to submit proposals to design and implement a community engagement and leadership program focused on social entrepreneurship, community service, action planning, and corporate social responsibility for youth (ages 20 to 40) from the West Bank, Gaza, and East Jerusalem. This program must be designed to implement activities that advance the applicant's goals and the U.S. OPA-PD mission, including but not limited to:1) Building Palestinian institutions, both governmental and non-governmental, that effectively address the needs and aspirations of the Palestinian people; 2) Building a prosperous Palestinian economy, led by a thriving private sector, that provides equitable and inclusive economic opportunities and improves daily life for Palestinians.
