U.S. Mission Mexico’s PDS invites proposals for programs that strengthen cultural ties and mutual understanding between the U.S. and Mexico through cultural, economic, educational, professional, and exchange programming that highlights shared values and promotes bilateral cooperation. All programs must include a U.S. cultural element, or connection with U.S. expert/s, organization/s, or institution/s in a specific field that will promote increased understanding of U.S. policies and perspectives. Programs that include multiple states and/or promote increased collaboration and networking between USG program alumni are encouraged.
Examples of PD Small Grants Program programs include, but are not limited to:
· Academic and professional lectures, seminars, and speaker programs;
· Artistic, cultural, educational, and sports workshops, joint performances, clinics, and exhibitions;
· Cultural heritage conservation and preservation programs;
· Professional and academic exchanges and programs; and
· Promotion of entrepreneurship for indigenous and Afro-Mexican community programs.
