The Public Diplomacy Section (PDS) of the U.S. Embassy in Belgrade announces an open competition for individuals and organizations to submit applications for the Serbian-American Cooperation Grants Program. Please follow all instructions below.
**Priority Region:**Serbia PDS welcomes proposals from non-government organizations, governmental institutions and individuals to administer creative, engaging projects that strengthen the Serbian-U.S. relationship and explain U.S. culture, society, values, and policies to Serbian audiences.
The Embassy is also working with Serbia’s government, civil society, business community, and other partners on promoting economic development and fighting brain drain; strengthening democracy, including through supporting civic participation, encouraging a free press and human rights, and advancing regional stability and cooperation. Projects funded through this NOFO must include an American element.
That could involve a connection or partnership between Serbian and American organizations or institutions; inviting an American expert to take part, in person or virtually, in your project; hosting a program to examine shared Serbian-American values, national interests, etc.; or incorporating a U.S. approach or method for addressing a challenge facing your community, institution, or profession.
Grant activities may take the form of academic competitions, summer camps (focused on language study, sports, etc.), cross-border exchanges, conferences, workshops, courses, curriculum development, exhibits, hackathons or app development, online projects, mock trials or moot court competitions, simulations and role-playing activities (e.g., Model Congress, Model United Nations), film or theater festivals, performances, or other activities.
Projects should begin no earlier than 1 July 2023 and no later than 1 July 2024. All activities and your evaluation or assessment of the project should be completed within 12 months, but up to 18 months in exceptional circumstances. Activities should focus on audiences in Serbia.
However, applicants may include participants or partners from neighboring countries of the Western Balkans, if it is in support of the project’s objectives. (See “Participants and Audiences” below.)
In accordance with the Executive Order on Advancing Racial Equity and Underserved Communities, proposals should demonstrate how the program advances equity with respect to race, ethnicity, religion, income, geography, gender identity, sexual orientation, and disability. The proposal should also demonstrate how the program will further engagement in underserved communities and with individuals from underserved communities.
Proposals should demonstrate how addressing racial equity and underserved communities will enhance the program’s goals and objectives, as well as the experience of participants. **Participants and Audiences:**The goals and objectives of the project will determine the audience.
PDS is seeking to support projects that strategically target audiences that will have the greatest impact and can work for the most positive change in communities in Serbia. In addition to primary audiences (e.g., teachers) projects may also have secondary audiences or beneficiaries (such as students who will benefit from the teachers’ training).
Please note that the participants or audiences for the proposed activity should be citizens or legal residents of Serbia. If your project idea might involve citizens of other countries, please see C. 4.

On August 17, 2026, the Department of War ordered 30 academic institutions to audit partnerships with entities on the Section 1286 list and with rebranded Confucius Institutes, assess export-controlled exposure, and terminate what cannot be mitigated — all reported by August 31. The institutions were not named publicly. Here is what the order actually requires, what the Section 1286 list contains, and what every research institution should be doing whether or not it received a letter.
Read articleA compliance roadmap published August 19 lays out what colleges and universities have to certify before the 2026-2027 academic year — and two of the items get almost no attention. FAR 52.222-90 must be flowed into existing contracts by December 31, 2026. And under EO 14282, certification of Section 117 foreign gift compliance is now expressly material to False Claims Act liability and to receiving federal grant funds at all. Here is the full stack, the dates, and what a defensible file looks like.

The House CR, passed July 21, contains no such provision and expires a week earlier.
