Cultural Affairs (ECA) announces an open competition for the FY 2020 International Sports Programming Initiative (ISPI). U.S. public and private non-profit organizations meeting the provisions described in Internal Revenue Code section 26 U.S.C. 501(c)(3) may submit proposals to manage sports exchange projects designed to reach underserved youth and/or their coaches/sports administrators who manage youth sports programs. These exchanges between the United States and select countries will be reciprocal exchanges that employ sports to address the Sport for Social Change theme outlined below. The International Sports Programming Initiative uses sports to help underserved youth around the world develop important leadership skills, achieve academic success, promote tolerance and respect for diversity, and positively contribute to their home and host communities. Sports Diplomacy programs are an important tool for advancing U.S. foreign policy goals through interaction with hard-to-reach groups such as at-risk youth, women, minorities, people with disabilities, and non-English speakers. The focus of all programs must be on both male and female youth and/or their coaches/sports administrators. Programs designed to train elite athletes or coaches are ineligible under
C.3. Other Eligibility Requirements below.
ECA intends to issue approximately four Cooperative Agreements, for an estimated total of $2,200,000, pending the availability of FY 2020 funds, to U.S. public and private non- profit organizations meeting the provisions described in Internal Revenue Code section
26 U.S.C. 501(c)(3) for the implementation and oversight of the exchange programs for
some of the eligible region groups, as outlined in A.3. Eligible Regions /Countries as listed below. NOTE: No guarantee is made or implied that cooperative agreements will be awarded in all Eligible Regions. Applicant organizations may submit only one proposal under this competition. If multiple proposals are received from the same applicant, all submissions will be declared ineligible and receive no further consideration in the review process. Please see section B. Federal Award Information below for additional details.
A. Program Description:
Overall grant making authority for this program is contained in the Mutual Educational and Cultural Exchange Act of 1961, Public Law 87-256, as amended, also known as the 2 Fulbright-Hays Act. The purpose of the Act is "to enable the Government of the United States to increase mutual understanding between the people of the United States and the people of other countries...; to strengthen the ties which unite us with other nations by demonstrating the educational and cultural interests, developments, and achievements of the people of the United States and other nations...and thus to assist in the development of friendly, sympathetic and peaceful relations between the United States and the other countries of the world." The funding authority for the program above is provided through legislation. A.1. Purpose: Sports Diplomacy enhances cross-cultural understanding and opens new avenues of dialogue and collaboration between individuals and nations. In support of sports diplomacy programs create people-to-people and institutional linkages through sport. Functional Bureau Strategy (2018-2022) details how programs, including sports diplomacy exchanges, advance the National Security Strategy. Two key goals that these programs will address from the Functional Bureau Strategy is to Advance American foreign policy objectives through flexible, responsive exchange proThe Office of Citizen Exchanges welcomes proposals that directly respond to the Sport for
Social Change theme outlined below.

Other Eligibility Requirements in the NOFO for additional information. The award recipient organization may conduct up to two of the four two-way exchange programs. The award recipient organization must also oversee and monitor at least two additional subaward recipient organizations to conduct the remaining two-way exchange programs. Each of the two-way exchange programs are required to last approximately two-weeks in duration, inclusive of travel, but can last longer, if possible. Through the cooperative agreement, the award recipient organization will be responsible for the management and oversight of the four two-way exchange programs and for the oversight 3 of the subaward recipient organizations that implement the programs. To ensure a diverse set of subaward recipients, award recipient organizations must solicit proposals from other U.S. public and private non-profit organizations meeting the provisions described in Internal Revenue Code section 26 U.S.C. 501(c)(3) that can provide subject matter expertise related to the programs proposed and implement the two-way exchange programs. The proposal should include a detailed plan to solicit subaward recipients proposals as well as the types of organizations and/or institutions the applicant intends to recruit. The applicant organization may indicate specific organizations and/or institutions that it intends to work with in its proposal; however, the final selection of the subaward organizations will be determined through a subaward competition in consultation with the ECA Program Officer and the warranted Grants Officer after the award has been issued. Letters of support and/or letters of commitment are not required during the application phase as the selection of the subaward organizations will be determined after the award has been issued. The ECA Program Officer and the warranted Grants Officer reserve the right to review all and to accept or refuse subaward recipients recommended by the award recipient. All proposals under the Sports for Social Change theme should clearly indicate the region and timeline for the two-way exchange programs, and should demonstrate thematic expertise, as well as any country/regional expertise, if applicable. Please see the Project Objectives, Goals, and Implementation (POGI) document for more information.
A.2. Eligible Theme:
Sport for Social Change: Sports-based people-to-people exchanges build and promote values of inclusion and open opportunities for people to contribute fully to society, and create opportunities to establish the trust needed to build a more stable, secure, and prosperous world.

Paralympic and adaptive sports.
