What the grant funds

The United States Embassy in Bosnia and Herzegovina (BiH), through the Public Diplomacy Section (PDS), is pleased to announce a Notice of Funding Opportunity for the BOLD (Balkan Omladinski Lideri, Balkan Young Leaders) Small Grants Competition for BiH BOLD network members. The BOLD network is a project of PDS that seeks to empower young people across BiH, ages 18-35, through leadership opportunities and training, to implement projects for positive change in their communities. The goal of these small grants, up to $15,000, is to empower BOLD members to apply the knowledge acquired during their fellowship by implementing projects in their communities that will contribute to economic development or encourage increased civic engagement. Project proposals may be submitted by one BOLD member or a group of BOLD members and may be implemented in partnership with organizations, government authorities, or educational institutions.
