Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs Request for Grant 
Proposals: Creative Arts Exchanges

SUMMARY: The Cultural Programs Division within the Office of Citizen 
Exchanges of the Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs (the 
Bureau) announces an open competition for the Creative Arts Exchanges 
Program. Public and private non-profit organizations meeting the 
provisions described in Internal Revenue Code section 26 U.S.C. 
501(c)(3) may submit proposals for exchange programs that utilize the 
arts to educate foreign audiences about the United States and its 
foreign policy goals.

General Program Information

    This competition is based on the premise that cultural exchanges 
will promote tolerance for pluralism in ideas, cultural values and 
peoples, and encourage other societies to implement democratic systems 
and practices. The goal of the projects submitted under this Request 
for Proposals will be to utilize the arts as a mechanism to engage 
youth and young adult audiences from diverse economic and social 
backgrounds. We are especially interested in reaching disadvantaged 
Muslim youth. Exchange activities funded under the Creative Arts 
Exchanges Program will address two questions:
    1. How do artists and arts organizations in the United States 
reflect and exhibit American Society, including the principles of 
freedom of expression, entrepreneurship, altruism, volunteerism, 
philanthropy and community affiliation?
    2. How do American artists convey, depict and represent these 
aspects of their society to citizens in other countries, and thereby 
inspire a better understanding of Americans, and promote democratic 
change?
    The Cultural Programs Division within the Office of Citizen 
Exchanges welcomes proposals that directly respond to the thematic 
areas listed below. It is anticipated that approximately $1,200,000 
will be available to support projects under this request for proposals. 
Competition for grant awards will be intense. The program office 
anticipates awarding approximately 5-6 grants. Public and private non-
profit arts and educational organizations meeting the provisions 
described in Internal Revenue Code section 26 U.S.C. 501(c)(3) are 
eligible to apply for grants between $50,000--$300,000 to conduct a 
program within one or more of the thematic areas listed below.
    Projects should focus on two-way, reciprocal exchanges of cultural 
and artistic professionals, unless otherwise specified. Proposals will 
be accepted for projects involving overseas countries within all six 
geographic regions designated by the Department of State: Africa, 
Europe and Eurasia, Near East and North Africa, East Asia and the 
Pacific, South Asia and the Western Hemisphere. However, the overseas 
partner country must have a significant Muslim population, except where 
other countries are explicitly listed for consideration under a 
specific theme. In Africa, we are particularly interested in projects 
with Burkina Faso, Mali, Nigeria, Senegal, Sudan and Tanzania. In the 
Near East and North Africa, we are specifically interested in exchange 
programs with the following countries: Morocco, Tunis, Algeria, Egypt, 
Syria, Jordan, Lebanon, West Bank/Gaza, Saudi Arabia, Yemen, Oman, 
Qatar, United Arab Emirates, Kuwait, Bahrain and Iraq. In the East Asia 
and Pacific Region we are especially interested in projects with 
Indonesia, Malaysia, Thailand, the Philippines, Brunei, Singapore and 
Cambodia. Please read the thematic subject delineations to ascertain if 
there are targeted geographic region(s) and/or specific countries for 
which we are particularly interested in receiving proposals. Applicants 
may contact the Cultural Programs Division at (202) 203-7488 for 
additional reference.
    Each project should propose an innovative, informed and efficient 
plan to identify, recruit and/or audition, select and program 
participants. Proposals must contain a narrative description of the 
correlation between the project and one or more of the following public 
and foreign policy topics: conflict resolution, global heritage, 
cultural heritage and tourism, regional stability, democratization and 
freedom of expression in an open society.
    Applicants may submit proposals that involve in depth multi-
dimensional projects that concentrate on one of the themes listed 
below. Alternatively, exchange projects funded under this competition 
may also incorporate several, or all of these themes:

Arts Management

    Projects submitted in response to this theme would be aimed at 
expanding the expertise of visual and performing arts administrators 
who are seeking to balance government and private sector funding. 
Additional topics would include the relevance of arts organizations to 
local communities, including questions of institutional outreach and 
educational programs, and the role of arts organizations in cultural 
heritage and tourism. Proposed projects that include particular 
geographic regions and countries will be rated more competitive under 
our first review criteria [listed in the following section of this 
document]. The targeted regions and countries are; East Asia and the 
Pacific, Near East and North Africa, and Eastern European and Central 
Asian countries with significant Muslim populations. This includes 
Cambodia, Indonesia, Malaysia, Singapore, Albania, Azerbaijan, Bosnia, 
Kyrgyz Republic, Tajikistan and Uzbekistan. The two-way exchange 
program should help arts administrators and directors of cultural 
institutions develop their skills

[[Page 21877]]

and share best practices in the areas of marketing, audience expansion, 
financial management, volunteer training, staff-development and 
strategies for creating public/private partnerships with an emphasis on 
economic stability, community service and civic education. The program 
might be structured around reciprocal residencies, workshops and 
shadowing experiences.

Contemporary Dance Choreographers Exchange

    Proposals are sought to coordinate the travel of professional 
American choreographers of contemporary/modern dance technique to 
countries with significant Muslim populations to work in higher 
educational institutes for the arts, and university or college 
settings, introducing young dancers to modern American choreography, 
interacting with Muslim youth and providing an alternative avenue for 
conflict resolution. Exchange programs could focus on modern, tap, jazz 
and/or the fusion of traditional and ethnic dance with contemporary 
choreography. Projects would provide opportunities for contemporary 
American choreographers to conduct 4-6 week reciprocal residencies at 
overseas educational institutions during which they would present 
lectures/demonstrations and workshops and create collaborative 
choreography pieces focused on dance as a form of free expression in a 
democratic society.

Music and/or Theater Education As A Conflict Resolution Tool

    Proposals are sought which bridge political differences between 
countries and peoples, through two-way exchanges between U.S. music or 
theater institutions working with young musicians or actors, and music 
and theater artists and faculty from countries with majority/
significant Muslim populations, including Israel. The project should 
include exchanges between music or theater establishments in order to 
promote collegiality friendship, understanding and basic human 
interaction between the students.
    Under this theme, conflict resolution is defined as the 
implementation of peaceful, non-violent mediation and dispute 
resolution strategies to achieve mutual agreement among community and 
interest groups, political parties and nations. Project ideas will 
employee music and/or theater to illustrate and communicate peacemaking 
techniques including effective communication, critical thinking and 
problem solving.
    Proposals should include strategies to expand the reach of the 
program by encouraging the U.S. and overseas participants to share the 
knowledge they gain from this project with their fellow performing 
artists and students. The projects should also build strong linkages 
and promote joint opportunities for the American and overseas musicians 
and actors to perform together, teach joint master classes and 
workshops, and increase their artistic skills.

Visual Artists Residency Program

    Proposals are sought to support the travel and participation of 
young and emerging artists from countries with significant Muslim 
populations in individual and group residency programs at artists' 
colonies, summer institutes and residential workshops for visual 
artists. Projects should include opportunities for artists working in 
the full range of contemporary art making media. Residency programs may 
be limited to artists at the same or differing stages of professional 
development. Proposals are also sought for programs that contain 
reciprocal exchange components for U.S. curators and institutions to 
conduct workshops and colloquia on subjects in American art for young 
and emerging artists in countries with significant Muslim populations. 
Projects should provide opportunities for American curators and artists 
to present lectures, focused exhibitions, master classes and workshops 
during two to three week residencies at overseas universities, museums 
and art centers.

Film and the American Image--New Audiences, New Filmmakers

    Projects proposed under this theme should provide a cultural 
outreach and exchange program designed to introduce audiences to 
diverse new works, develop relationships between international 
communities of artists and enrich the professional development of the 
participants. The goal of the program will be to expose young 
audiences, especially young Muslims, to films and filmmakers that 
illustrate various attributes of American society so that they have a 
better understanding of the openness and diversity that defines the 
United States. Projects which focus on artistic communities in Egypt, 
Jordan, Indonesia, Lebanon, Syria, Iran, Iraq, Turkey, Israel, 
Tajikistan, Uzbekistan, Afghanistan, Turkmenistan, Pakistan, and 
Kazakhstan, will be rated more competitive under Review Criteria 
1. Programs should be designed to engage young audiences in 
the targeted countries. These exchanges will introduce America's most 
talented filmmakers to particular overseas countries, bring foreign 
counterparts to the United States and expose American and foreign 
audiences to each other's cultural and artistic traditions. The project 
objective will be to build linkages between foreign and American arts 
educational and cultural institutions. Proposals must include 
reciprocal exchanges of highly accomplished individuals or groups, 
resulting in linkages that promote joint projects during the grant 
period and continuing after the program ends.

Intellectual Property Rights for Artists

    Projects under this theme should focus on increasing awareness 
among filmmakers, writers, composers, musicians, and other experts of 
the need to create mechanisms to protect against unauthorized 
replication and distribution of their cultural works. Featured topics 
of discussion will include the value of establishing an effective basis 
for creating such mechanisms in their own countries. Programs should 
include lectures and round table discussions on the importance of anti-
piracy laws to protect each nation's cultural heritage as well as 
safeguard the individual property rights of its artists; the world wide 
trend toward harmonizing national laws governing copyright protection, 
the need for copyright safeguards to help foster cultural production; 
and the role of intellectual property rights enforcement in 
international trade. Programs also should include hands-on workshops to 
assist artists in less open societies in navigating the legislative 
systems in their countries in order to influence their governments to 
begin the process of adopting and enforcing good copyright laws. 
Proposals for projects under this I.P.R. theme will be accepted for 
projects including any or all of the following countries: Brazil, 
China, Egypt, Israel, Lebanon, Morocco and Russia. Proposals may 
include a film or visual or performing arts presentation as a component 
of the project.

Review Process

    The Bureau will acknowledge receipt of all proposals and will 
review them for technical eligibility. Proposals will be deemed 
ineligible if they do not fully adhere to the guidelines stated herein 
and in the Solicitation Package. All eligible proposals will be 
reviewed by the program office, as well as the Public Diplomacy section 
overseas, where appropriate. Eligible proposals will be subject to 
compliance with Federal and Bureau regulations and guidelines and

[[Page 21878]]

forwarded to Bureau grant panels for advisory review. Proposals may 
also be reviewed by the Office of the Legal Adviser or by other 
Department elements. Final funding decisions are at the discretion of 
the Department of State's Assistant Secretary for Educational and 
Cultural Affairs. Final technical authority for assistance award grants 
resides with the Bureau's Grants Officer.

Review Criteria

    Technically eligible applications will be competitively reviewed 
according to the criteria stated below. These criteria are not rank 
ordered and all carry equal weight in the proposal evaluation:
    1. Quality of the program idea: Proposals should exhibit 
originality, substance, innovation and precision. The program plan 
should state the relevance of a project to the U.S. Department of 
State's foreign policy goals. Program ideas should focus on the 
targeted world regions and countries that are listed at the beginning 
of the General Program Information Section and in several of the 
specific descriptions of each subject theme.
    2. Program Plan: A detailed agenda and relevant work plan should 
demonstrate substantive undertakings and logistical capacity. Agenda 
and program plan should adhere to the program overview and guidelines 
described above. Projects should reflect creative, efficient and 
innovative planning. Program activities should engage young Muslim 
participants and audience members in the overseas partner countries.
    3. Ability to achieve program objectives: Objectives should be 
reasonable, feasible, and flexible. Proposals should clearly 
demonstrate how the institution will meet the program's objectives and 
plan.
    4. Multiplier effect/impact: Proposed programs should strengthen 
long-term mutual understanding, including maximum sharing of 
information and establishment.
    5. Support of Diversity and Cross-Cultural Sensitivity: Proposals 
should demonstrate substantive support of the Bureau's policy on 
diversity. Achievable and relevant features should be cited in both 
program administration (selection of participants, program venue and 
program evaluation) and program content (orientation and wrap-up 
sessions, program meetings, resource materials and follow-up 
activities). Proposals should illustrate the applicant's mastery of 
strategies to achieve cross-cultural sensitivity.
    6. Institutional Capacity and Record: Proposed personnel and 
institutional resources should be adequate and appropriate to achieve 
the program or project's goals.
    7. Follow-on Activities: Proposals should provide a plan for 
continued follow-on activity (without Bureau support) ensuring that 
Bureau supported programs are not isolated events.
    8. Monitoring and Project Evaluation: Proposals should include a 
plan to evaluate the activity's success, both as the activities unfold 
and at the end of the program. A draft survey questionnaire or other 
technique plus description of a methodology to use to link outcomes to 
original project objectives is recommended. Successful applicants will 
be expected to submit intermediate reports after each project component 
is concluded or quarterly, whichever is less frequent.
    9. Cost-effectiveness and Cost-sharing: The overhead and 
administrative components of the proposal, including salaries and 
honoraria, should be kept as low as possible. All other items should be 
necessary and appropriate.
    10. Value to U.S.-Partner Country Relations: The U.S. Department of 
State's geographic cultural exchange coordinators and overseas Embassy 
officers will need to conduct an internal review of proposed projects 
to assess the need for the program, potential impact, and significance 
in the partner country(ies).

Ineligible Proposals

    Projects based on other artistic objectives, or themes not 
previously listed, including performing arts tours, conferences, museum 
exchanges, independent film production, an individual artist's career 
development and programs focused on the creation of art, rather than 
the exchange of participants, will not be accepted. Proposals to 
present community or amateur arts groups will be declared technically 
ineligible under this competition.

Guidelines

    Programs must comply with J-1 visa regulations. Please refer to 
Solicitation Package for further information.

Budget Guidelines

    Grants awarded to eligible organizations with less than four years 
of experience in conducting international exchange programs will be 
limited to $60,000.
    Applicants must submit a comprehensive budget for the entire 
program. It is anticipated that grant awards will range from $50,000 to 
$300,000. There must be a summary budget as well as breakdowns 
reflecting both administrative and program budgets. Applicants may 
provide separate sub-budgets for each program component, phase, 
location, or activity to provide clarification. Since Bureau grant 
assistance constitutes only a portion of total project funding, 
proposals should list and provide evidence of other anticipated sources 
of financial and in-kind support. Proposals that provide a minimum of 
30 percent cost sharing of the amount of grant funds sought from ECA 
will be rated more competitive under Review Criteria 9.
    When cost sharing is stated, it is understood and agreed that the 
applicant will provide the minimum amount of cost sharing listed in the 
project budget, and later included in an approved grant agreement. Cost 
sharing may be in the form of allowable direct or indirect costs. The 
basis for determining the value of cash and in-kind contributions must 
be in accordance with OMB Circular A-110, (Revised), Subpart C.23--Cost 
Sharing and Matching. In the event that a grantee does not provide the 
minimum amount of cost sharing as stipulated in the approved budget, 
ECA's contribution may be reduced proportionately to the contribution.
    Allowable costs for the program include the following:
    (1) Travel costs. International and domestic airfares; visas, 
transit costs; ground transportation costs. Please note that all air 
travel must be in compliance with the Fly America Act. There is no 
charge for J-1 visas for participants in Bureau sponsored programs.
    (2) Per Diem. For the U.S. program, organizations have the option 
of using a flat $160/day for program participants or the published U.S. 
Federal per diem rates for individual American cities. For activities 
outside the U.S. the published Federal per diem rates must be used.
    (3) Book and Cultural Allowance: Foreign participants are entitled 
to a one-time cultural allowance of $150 per person, plus a participant 
book allowance of $50.
    (4) Consultants. Consultants may be used to provide specialized 
expertise, design or manage development projects or to make 
presentations. Honoraria generally do not exceed $250 per day.
    (5) Health Insurance. Foreign participants will be covered under 
the terms of a U.S. Department of State-sponsored health insurance 
policy. The premium is paid by the U.S. Department of State directly to 
the insurance company. Applicants are permitted to include costs for 
travel insurance for U.S. participants in the budget.

[[Page 21879]]

    (6) Administrative Costs. Costs necessary for the effective 
administration of the program may include salaries for grant 
organization employees, benefits and other direct or indirect costs per 
detailed instructions in the Solicitation Package.

    Applicants must also submit the ``Executive Summary'' and 
``Proposal Narrative'' sections of the proposal in text (.txt) format 
on a PC-formatted disk. The Bureau will provide these files 
electronically to the Public Affairs Officers at the U.S. embassies for 
their review.

Diversity, Freedom and Democracy Guidelines

    Pursuant to the Bureau's authorizing legislation, programs must 
maintain a non-political character and should be balanced and 
representative of the diversity of American political, social, and 
cultural life. ``Diversity'' should be interpreted in the broadest 
sense and encompass differences including, but not limited to 
ethnicity, race, gender, religion, geographic location, socio-economic 
status, and physical challenges. Applicants are strongly encouraged to 
adhere to the advancement of this principle both in program 
administration and in program content. Please refer to the review 
criteria under the `Support for Diversity' section for specific 
suggestions on incorporating diversity into the total proposal. Pub. L. 
104-319 provides that ``in carrying out programs of educational and 
cultural exchange in countries whose people do not fully enjoy freedom 
and democracy,'' the Bureau ``shall take appropriate steps to provide 
opportunities for participation in such programs to human rights and 
democracy leaders of such countries.'' Pub. L. 106-113 requires that 
the governments of the countries described above do not have 
inappropriate influence in the selection process. Proposals should 
reflect advancement of these goals in their program contents, to the 
full extent deemed feasible.

Adherence to All Regulations Governing the J Visa

    The Office of Citizen Exchanges of the Bureau of Educational and 
Cultural Affairs is the official program sponsor of the exchange 
program covered under this sole source solicitation, and an employee of 
the Bureau will be the ``Responsible Officer'' for the program under 
the terms of 22 CFR 62, which covers the administration of the Exchange 
Visitor Program (J visa program). Under the terms of 22CFR 62, the Silk 
Road Project, inc. will be a third party ``cooperating with or 
assisting the sponsor in the conduct of the sponsor's program.'' The 
actions of grantee program organizations shall be ``imputed to the 
sponsor in evaluating the sponsor's compliance with'' 22 CFR 62. 
Therefore, the Bureau expects that any organization receiving a grant 
under this competition will render all assistance necessary to enable 
the Bureau to full comply with 22 CFR 62 et seq. The Bureau of 
Educational and Cultural Affairs places great emphasis on the secure 
and proper administration of Exchange Visitor (J visa) Programs and 
adherence by grantee organizations and program participants to all 
regulations governing the J visa program status. Therefore, proposals 
should explicitly state in writing that the applicant is prepared to 
assist the Bureau in meeting all requirements governing the 
administration of Exchange Visitor Programs as set forth in 22 CFR 62. 
If the applicant has experience as a designated Exchange Visitor 
Program Sponsor, the applicant should discuss their record of 
compliance with 22 CFR 62 et. seq., including the oversight of their 
Responsible Officers and Alternate Responsible Officers, screening and 
selection of program participants, provision of pre-arrival information 
and orientation to participants, monitoring of participants, proper 
maintenance and security of forms, record-keeping, reporting and other 
requirements.

[[Page 21880]]

review them for technical eligibility. Proposals will be deemed 
ineligible if they do not fully adhere to the guidelines stated herein 
and in the Solicitation Package. All eligible proposals will be 
reviewed by the program office, as well as the Public Diplomacy section 
overseas, where appropriate. Eligible proposals will be subject to
