Opportunity Information: Apply for BEIRUT2022AEIF
The 2022 Beirut Alumni Engagement Innovation Fund (AEIF 2022) is a competitive grant opportunity offered by the U.S. Department of State through the U.S. Mission to Lebanon (U.S. Embassy Beirut). It is designed specifically for alumni of U.S. government-funded or U.S. government-sponsored exchange programs, with the goal of helping them turn the skills, networks, and experience they gained during their exchange into practical, community-based projects in Lebanon. The program funds alumni-led initiatives that propose innovative, real-world solutions to challenges facing local communities, using an approach that emphasizes public service and measurable impact.
This call is limited to proposals developed and managed by teams of at least two exchange alumni, rather than individuals working alone. Projects must align with the 2022 thematic focus, which centers on advancing women s roles in civic and political life, particularly women s political and civic participation and efforts that strengthen or expand the role of women in policy formulation. In other words, the Embassy is looking for alumni teams that can design and implement projects that remove barriers to women s participation, strengthen women s leadership pipelines, create tools or training that help women engage in policy processes, or otherwise increase women s influence in how decisions are shaped and made.
Funding is provided through assistance instruments such as grants or cooperative agreements. The maximum award amount is listed as 40,000, and the opportunity anticipates making about 10 awards. The eligible activity areas are broad and can include arts and culture-related work, community development, education, employment and workforce initiatives, environmental efforts, humanities, and science and technology or research and development, as long as the proposed work clearly supports the women s participation and policy formulation focus. Overall, the program reflects AEIF s broader global track record: since 2011 it has supported hundreds of alumni-led projects worldwide through competitive selection, and this Beirut competition is the Lebanon-based pathway for that same alumni innovation model.
