## What the grant funds

A. PROGRAM DESCRIPTION The U.S. Embassy Bangkok Public Diplomacy Section of the U.S. Department of State announces an open competition for organizations or individuals to submit a statement of interest (SOI) or concept note to carry out program(s) funded by the U.S. Embassy Bangkok. Please carefully follow all instructions below. The submission of the SOI is the first step in a two-step process. Applicants must first submit a concise statement of interest through the Google application form (https://forms.gle/3DSzBvf1u72UwuzY8). The SOI is designed for applicants to clearly communicate program ideas and objectives and is not a full proposal. The purpose of the SOI process is to allow applicants to submit program ideas for evaluation prior to requiring the development of a full proposal application. Upon a merit review of eligible SOIs, selected applicants will be invited to expand on their program ideas by submitting a full proposal application. Full proposals will go through a second merit review before final funding decisions are made. Priority Program Areas 1. Democracy, Governance, and Human Rights Activities that strengthen democratic values, accountability, public participation, transparency, and rule of law in governance and political institutions. Innovative projects that educate Thais about the U.S. experience in meaningful participation in democratic processes and civic life. Activities that promote universally recognized human rights and fundamental freedoms. Activities that promote connection between the United States and the rising leaders in the Indo-Pacific region. Activities that focus on enhancing critical thinking skills and promoting civic engagement to counter disinformation and improve media/digital literacy. 2. Technology, Innovation, Entrepreneurship, and Renewable Energy Activities that support and build capability for, and promote economic inclusivity among micro, small and medium enterprises (MSMEs) and underrepresented entrepreneurs. Activities that build digital skills and improve business practices of MSMEs and underrepresented entrepreneurs for different stages of business development. Activities that increase awareness of environmental protection, climate change, climate-smart agriculture, transboundary water challenges, renewable energy, and other key regional issues.
