Description: The Regional English Language Office (RELO) at the U.S. Embassy Kyiv Public Affairs Section (PAS) of the U.S. Department of State announces an open competition for organizations to submit a statement of interest (SOI) to carry out a program (or programs) to support English language instruction at the secondary and tertiary levels in Ukraine. This opportunity seeks to support initiatives that foster the development of civil society and democratic governance by improving the quality of English language education in Ukrainian schools. Successful proposals will be built on a sustainable model and will closely support new or existing Ukrainian Ministry of Education (MOES) initiatives for teaching English. Proposals will address one or more of the following topics related to English: &#183; Content-based language learning, particularly in science &#183; Social emotional learning &#183; Blended learning models (online and in-person) &#183; Integrating students from internally-displaced populations (IDPs) &#183; Other teaching or training topics that are relevant to the MOES goals Proposals in conjunction with efforts to rebuild the educational programs in damaged schools are encouraged. Proposals can be for online, blended, or in-person training and could include an exchange component. Strong proposals will demonstrate prior experience working with the Ukrainian MOES. Participants and audiences: Ukrainian teachers, trainers, and education leaders NOTE: The submission of the SOI is the first step in a two-step process. Applicants must first submit a concise 3-page statement of interest designed to clearly communicate program idea and objectives. This 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 idea(s) by submitting a full proposal application. Full proposals will go through a second merit review before final funding decision(s) are made. All awards are pending funding availability.
