The Office of Citizen Exchanges, Youth Programs Division, of the Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs announces an open competition to design and implement a Youth Leadership Program with Iraq. 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 a grant that will support English- speaking high school students and adult participants from Iraq in a four-week U.S.-based exchange that explores civic education, leadership development, respect for diversity, and community involvement. The program will conclude with follow-on activities in the participants' home communities in which they apply the knowledge and skills acquired during the exchange experience.
