Opportunity Information: Apply for KYIVPAS SPG FY17 002
The Ukraine: USG Public Diplomacy Small Grants Program is a U.S. Embassy Kyiv funding opportunity for the 2016-2017 period that supports small, cultural and educational projects designed to deepen ties between the United States and Ukraine. The core purpose is public diplomacy: highlighting shared connections, strengthening bilateral relations, and improving mutual understanding between Americans and Ukrainians through programs that bring people together around culture, the arts, and education. Projects are accepted on a rolling basis and then reviewed quarterly by a U.S. Embassy grants committee, meaning applicants do not have to wait for a single annual deadline to apply, but should plan around periodic review cycles.
A central framing for this round of funding is the 25th anniversary of U.S.-Ukraine bilateral relations in 2017. The Embassy describes a yearlong slate of events intended to look back at the historical relationship between the two countries, showcase present-day cooperation and achievements, and encourage Ukrainians and Americans to think practically and creatively about how the relationship can grow over the next 25 years. In practice, this makes the program a good fit for proposals that include a clear U.S.-Ukraine connection, meaningful public engagement, and visible community-facing outcomes such as performances, exhibitions, discussions, publications, or educational events.
The eligible project themes are broad but specific in emphasis. The program invites proposals in the performing and visual arts, including music, dance, theater, literature, film, photography, and video, as well as gallery-style exhibitions featuring painting, sculpture, photography, artifacts, cartoons, and similar works. It also supports translation projects that bring American authors to Ukrainian audiences, specifically translating books into Ukrainian for distribution in both hard copy and e-book formats. Another major category is public programming with U.S. experts, including lectures and roundtables on arts disciplines (music, dance, theater, literature, poetry, film, and video) as well as lectures and roundtables on diplomatic history, politics, economics, democratic and economic development, good governance, entrepreneurship, and innovation. Human rights programming is also explicitly encouraged, with examples such as trafficking in persons, the integration of displaced populations, and service provision for displaced people.
Eligibility is limited to Ukrainian and U.S. individuals and to registered nonprofit, non-governmental organizations based in Ukraine or the United States. The source details indicate that eligible applicant types include U.S. 501(c)(3) nonprofits, nonprofits without 501(c)(3) status (so long as they are not institutions of higher education), individuals, and other eligible entities as defined by the opportunity. Third-country organizations and individuals are not eligible, so proposals must be led by Ukrainian or U.S. applicants rather than partners headquartered elsewhere.
From a funding and administrative standpoint, this is a discretionary grant opportunity administered by the U.S. Mission to Ukraine, categorized under an arts funding activity (CFDA 19.040). The award ceiling is listed as $25,000, positioning it as a small grants program intended for targeted, well-scoped projects rather than large multi-year initiatives. The original closing date shown is September 1, 2017, though applications were accepted on a rolling basis during the open period and reviewed quarterly, so timing and completeness of the application would have been important for being considered in earlier review rounds. Specific thematic priorities and detailed program requirements are referenced as being available on the Embassy website, indicating that applicants were expected to align closely with posted guidance on allowable activities, budgeting, and implementation expectations.Apply for KYIVPAS SPG FY17 002
