Deadline: 11 July 2018
The Public Affairs Section (PAS) of U.S. Embassy Kyiv is pleased to announce an open competition for program proposals through this Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO). PAS invites U.S. non-profit/non-governmental organizations to submit media support and exchange program concept papers for supporting professional and financially viable media in Ukraine.
The project goal is to create and maintain long-term relationships between selected American and Ukrainian media outlets of similar size, and between the individuals who work at both outlets. Within this framework, Ukrainian professionals in print, online, and broadcast media will have the opportunity to interact with U.S. counterparts and to take part in practical training, organized by their U.S. partner. This project seeks to promote the development of free and independent Ukrainian media outlets that are financially viable, based on the fact that independent media is critical for the further democratic development of Ukraine.
