Opportunity Information: Apply for SVM300 24 PAS AS
The American Spaces Notice of Funding Opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number SVM300 24 PAS AS) is a discretionary grant competition run by the U.S. Mission to Vietnam to support public programming delivered through American Spaces (including American Centers and their existing facilities such as makerspaces). The opportunity is designed to fund projects that offer a well-structured, multi-event series rather than a single standalone event. A competitive proposal is expected to present a robust calendar of activities delivered as serial programming over a period of at least two months, with clear objectives and practical engagement for participants.
Projects must directly address at least one of three priority program areas. The first area focuses on Digital Policy, STEM Education, and Workforce Development. Funded programming in this track should help audiences better understand emerging technologies and the policy challenges that come with them. Examples of emphasized topics include cybersecurity, intellectual property rights, artificial intelligence, fintech, and quantum computing. This area also prioritizes skills-building that is hands-on and participatory, combining technical and soft skills through interactive workshops. Suggested formats include activities tied to STEM fields, digital trade, digital arts, gaming, and related business practices. Programming may be designed for online delivery to support small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and/or may leverage existing makerspaces at American Centers for practical, project-based learning.
The second priority area covers Climate Solutions, Health Security, and Sustainability. Proposals in this category should aim for measurable outcomes connected to environmental protection and preservation, climate change adaptation, and pollution reduction. The notice highlights renewable energy, climate-smart agriculture, transboundary water challenges, and clean energy as relevant themes, alongside health security and public health preparedness. The emphasis on measurable goals suggests that applicants should define tangible targets and indicators, such as participant learning outcomes, adoption of practices, pilot initiatives, or community-facing deliverables that demonstrate impact beyond awareness-raising alone.
The third priority area supports Information Literacy and Research Skills Workshops. This track is centered on strengthening critical thinking and the ability to locate, evaluate, organize, use, and communicate information across formats. The scope explicitly includes working with data, digital media, and AI tools, with a strong focus on responsible and ethical information use. Programming is expected to help audiences conduct research effectively and assess information quality, including through the use of American Spaces databases and open educational resources, indicating that proposals should incorporate guided practice with credible research tools rather than relying only on lectures or general discussions.
Eligibility is open to several organization types with relevant programming capacity. The opportunity welcomes registered not-for-profit organizations, including think tanks and civil society/non-governmental organizations with programming experience, as well as non-profit or governmental educational institutions and other governmental institutions. In the standardized eligibility categories, this includes public and state-controlled institutions of higher education, nonprofits with 501(c)(3) status, and nonprofits without 501(c)(3) status (as applicable), along with other eligible entities as defined in the notice.
In terms of scale and timing, the grant has an award ceiling of $35,000, with an anticipated five awards. The opportunity was created on May 9, 2024, and the original closing date for applications was June 17, 2024. Overall, the funding is aimed at supporting multi-session, interactive programming that builds practical skills, addresses current policy and societal challenges, and uses American Spaces as a platform to reach and engage target audiences in Vietnam over a sustained period.Apply for SVM300 24 PAS AS
