Public or private non-profit organizations and educational institutions meeting the provisions described in IRS regulation 501(c)(3) may apply to develop projects that promote the purposes of this program, which are to: (a) Build the capacity of organizations to conduct academic exchanges at the secondary school level between the U.S. and the NIS; (b) promote study abroad opportunities in the NIS for Americans; and (c) sponsor study opportunities in the U.S. for NIS high school-aged students. Applicants may apply for grants of up to two years duration. Full-year exchanges are permitted only in the second year of the grant. Exchanges of three to five months duration may take place during the 1996 spring semester, the 1996 fall semester, the 1997 spring semester, and the 1997 fall semester. Full year exchanges for both inbound and outbound students may take place during the 1996-97 academic year. Overall grant making authority for this program is contained in the Secondary School Exchange Initiative, as originally authorized in the Freedom Support Act of 1992 (Pub. L. 102-391). It is anticipated that $5 million will be allotted to this program. However, grants are subject to the availability of funds in Fiscal Year 1995. Programs and projects must conform with Agency requirements and guidelines as outlined in the Solicitation Package. | 1994-11-10 | 1994 | 11 | https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/1994/11/10/94-27502/freedom-support-act-secondary-school-initiativeusnis-academic-studies-inboundoutbound-program | United States Information Agency | 510 | The NIS Secondary School Initiative Division, Office of Citizen Exchanges of the United States Information Agency's Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs announces an open competition for an assistance award to facilitate academic exchanges... |
