Opportunity Information: Apply for PAS CHISINAU FY21 04
The Speaker Program is a discretionary grant opportunity from the U.S. Mission to Moldova (PAS Chisinau) designed to strengthen understanding of U.S. policies, institutions, and the broader political, economic, social, and cultural context that shapes them. The core idea is to bring speakers and subject-matter experts from the United States into Moldova to share knowledge, practical experience, and perspectives through public-facing and skills-oriented activities. Proposed programs can take many formats, including seminars, workshops, conferences, trainings, and media engagements, as long as they meaningfully support learning and capacity-building that is relevant to Moldovan communities.
A competitive proposal is expected to be more than a simple event plan. Applicants must clearly explain, using evidence where possible, the problem they are trying to address, why that problem matters in Moldova, and what the on-the-ground context looks like for implementation. Proposals also need to specify who will benefit from the project (the target beneficiaries) and lay out a credible theory of change, meaning a logical explanation of how the planned activities will lead to the desired outcomes and advance the program objectives. The opportunity encourages applicants to collaborate with relevant stakeholders, which can include public institutions, private sector actors, and local civil society organizations, to increase reach, relevance, and long-term value.
The program strongly encourages applicants to hold at least one activity at America House in Chisinau or at other American Spaces in Balti, Tiraspol, or Ungheni. These venues are positioned as ready-made hubs with built-in audiences and resources that can support programming and visibility. Proposals are also expected to show an innovative angle. Innovation can mean designing an approach that remains useful even if future funding is limited, proposing a new model or a creative way to scale proven practices, or directly responding to a timely challenge affecting communities in Moldova.
Inclusivity is a stated priority. When defining target groups, applicants must show a real commitment to supporting and including marginalized communities. The opportunity explicitly names a wide range of possible dimensions of marginalization to consider, including disability status, race, ethnicity, religion, sexual orientation, gender identity, age, and whether communities are rural or urban. In practice, this means proposals should intentionally plan for equitable access and participation, not treat inclusion as an afterthought.
Applications must be submitted using required templates and documents. A complete package includes an application narrative in the provided MS Word format and a detailed budget in the provided MS Excel format. If a speaker is already confirmed, the application must also include a speaker biography and a speaker letter of intent (both free-form). The required forms are available in the opportunity's related documents.
Eligibility is limited to public institutions and not-for-profit organizations (such as NGOs, CSOs, and think tanks) that are officially registered in the Republic of Moldova. Organizations that are not registered in Moldova cannot apply as the primary applicant, but they may participate as partners through an eligible Moldovan organization. The funding instrument is a grant, the award ceiling is $60,000, and the funding opportunity is identified as PAS CHISINAU FY21 04 under CFDA 19.900, with an original closing date of February 22, 2021.Apply for PAS CHISINAU FY21 04
