Opportunity Information: Apply for NEAAC ACBURGR 17 002
The 2017 Tomorrows Leaders Scholarship Recruitment opportunity is a U.S. Department of State funding announcement issued by the Bureau of Near Eastern Affairs, Office of Assistance Coordination (NEA/AC). It is a discretionary Notice of Funding Opportunity focused on education, designed to strengthen and broaden access to higher-education pathways for students from the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) by supporting recruitment for the Tomorrows Leaders Scholarship Program. At its core, the recruitment effort is intended to connect qualified MENA students with a program that provides university-level scholarships, internship placements, and service-learning experiences at U.S.-accredited colleges and universities located in the MENA region.
A central goal of the opportunity is not only to expand educational access, but also to advance a shared understanding of civic engagement and participatory governance. In practice, the recruitment program is meant to help identify, attract, and enroll students who can benefit from Tomorrows Leaders and who may go on to engage in community-oriented activities, leadership development, and practical learning opportunities tied to civic participation. The recruitment component is framed as a way to ensure that the scholarship and associated experiences reach the intended populations and help build a cohort of students with exposure to these principles through academic study, internships, and service-learning.
The award is structured as a cooperative agreement, meaning the Department of State expects a more active partnership with the recipient than in a standard grant, typically involving ongoing coordination or substantial involvement in implementation. The opportunity anticipated making a single award, with an expected award count of 1 and a maximum funding level (award ceiling) of $600,000. The funding opportunity is associated with CFDA number 19.600 and is categorized under education activities.
Eligibility is limited to nonprofit organizations that have 501(c)(3) status with the IRS, excluding institutions of higher education. In other words, a qualified nonprofit would apply to run and manage the recruitment effort rather than a university applying directly as the implementing entity. The announcement was created on February 17, 2017, with an original application deadline of March 17, 2017. The funding opportunity is identified by the title "2017 Tomorrows Leaders Scholarship Recruitment" and the funding opportunity number NEAAC ACBURGR 17 002.Apply for NEAAC ACBURGR 17 002
