Opportunity Information: Apply for DOS GEO 21 GR 005 041221
The Youth Journalism Development Program is a discretionary grant opportunity offered by the U.S. Department of State through the Public Affairs Section (PAS) of the U.S. Embassy in Tbilisi, Georgia (U.S. Mission to Georgia). It was posted under Funding Opportunity Number DOS GEO 21 GR 005 041221 and is categorized within the education funding activity area under CFDA 19.900. The program is structured as a grant-funded initiative, with the Embassy seeking one award to support implementation.
The main purpose of the opportunity is to train at least 75 young people who are high school and college-aged and who live in regions of Georgia populated by ethnic Azerbaijani and Armenian communities. The training focus is practical and skills-based, centered on building foundational capacity in multimedia journalism and media literacy, while also integrating civic education, English language development, and introductory entrepreneurship concepts. In practice, this means the program is not only about teaching participants how to produce journalism content, but also about strengthening their ability to evaluate information critically, understand civic issues, improve communication skills in English, and gain basic knowledge that can support future self-employment or project development.
The expected outcomes emphasize measurable, participant-level growth. By the end of the program, participants should be able to demonstrate basic journalism production skills (especially in multimedia formats), show stronger habits around using reliable and credible media sources, and have improved English proficiency that helps them communicate and consume media in English. Beyond immediate skills, the program is intended to serve as a stepping stone for longer-term advancement by helping participants prepare for future academic pathways, vocational training, employment opportunities, and deeper engagement with Georgian society more broadly.
In terms of funding details and timeline, the opportunity listed an award ceiling of $150,000 and anticipated making one award.
