Description: The Office of Global Educational Programs of the Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs (ECA), U.S. Department of State, announces an open competition for one cooperative agreement to administer the Office&apos;s Fulbright Teacher Exchange Programs in Fiscal Year (FY) 2024. For more than 75 years, Fulbright Teacher Exchanges have offered opportunities for educators to learn, teach, consult, observe, and collaborate in classrooms and schools abroad. Fulbright Teacher Exchanges provide professional learning programs for elementary and secondary (K-12) educators in the United States and around the world. Fulbright Teachers develop their educational practice and bring global knowledge, skills, and perspectives to their schools. These educators forge lasting connections that foster mutual understanding and prepare their students to be future leaders, equipped to collaborate with others around the world to address global challenges. Fulbright Teachers&#8217; participation in these programs has a powerful multiplier effect in their classrooms, influencing millions of students around the world over the course of their careers. More specific information for each program component is provided below and in the Project Objectives, Goals, and Implementation (POGI) document. Fulbright Teacher Exchanges are part of the suite of offerings within the Fulbright Program. The Presidentially appointed J. William Fulbright Foreign Scholarship Board (FFSB) is responsible for the programs listed below, and establishes policies and procedures that govern the Fulbright program including overall policy guidelines and selection criteria which are available at the following website: https://eca.state.gov/fulbright/about-fulbright/fulbright-foreign-scholarship-board-ffsb/ffsb-policies. The FFSB is responsible for the final selection of all Fulbright candidates. Organizations must ensure compliance with all FFSB policies and procedures and fully and properly identify this program as both a Fulbright Program and a U.S. Department of State Program in all communications. U.S. public and private non-profit organizations or consortia or other combinations of eligible organizations meeting the provisions described in Internal Revenue Code section 501(c)(3) may submit a proposal to cooperate with the Bureau in the administration of the FY 2024 Fulbright Teacher Exchange Programs. Only one proposal will be considered by ECA from each applicant organization. In cases where more than one submission from an applicant appears in grants.gov, ECA will only consider the submission made closest in time to the NOFO deadline; that submission would constitute the one and only proposal ECA would review from that applicant. Applicants should submit one budget that clearly details the costs per program component. Applicant organizations are encouraged to develop synergies across and among program components, look for administrative efficiencies, and explore public and private partnership opportunities with U.S. for-profit and non-profit entities, school districts, and other education stakeholders to increase support for selected U.S. Fulbright educators. U.S. public and private applicant organizations meeting the provisions of a 501(c)(3) must be based in the United States. ECA anticipates issuing one cooperative agreement, pending the availability of FY 2024 funds. ECA reserves the right to fully fund, partially fund, or not to fund a given program component. Please see section B. Federal Award Information below for additional details. The amounts listed for each component are provided below to enable applicant organizations to prepare budgets for planning purposes only and are subject to change, pending the availability of FY 2024 funds.
