What the grant funds

The Public Diplomacy Section (PDS) of the United States Consulate General in Peshawar is pleased to announce an open competition for assistance award funding. Based on funding availability, this project will bring experts from the United States to train staff of the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Directorate of Archaeology and Museums in various aspects of museum management including, but not limited to, handling and cataloging of museum artifacts, object conservation, and record keeping and digitization. Implemented by a U.S.-based organization, this training would allow the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Directorate of Archeology and Museums to display more objects in the provincial museums, ultimately leading to an increase in heritage tourism. The award ceiling is $250,000, and the duration is up to 24 months with a possible one-year extension.
