Opportunity Information: Apply for PAS SIV 100 FY22 APS
The U.S. Embassy Abidjan PAS Annual Program Statement (Funding Opportunity Number: PAS SIV 100 FY22) is a discretionary grant opportunity from the U.S. Department of State, U.S. Mission to Cote d Ivoire (CFDA 19.040). It supports programs that advance U.S. public diplomacy priorities and, as part of that, applicants are expected to clearly explain how their proposed activities will strengthen or improve some aspect of the relationship between the United States and Cote d Ivoire. The opportunity anticipates up to about 10 awards, with a maximum award amount (ceiling) of $25,000 per grant.
Applications were accepted on a rolling basis up to two round deadlines for FY22: Round 1 by February 28, 2022 and Round 2 by May 31, 2022. No applications were accepted after those dates. All application materials had to be submitted by email to AbidjanPAS@state.gov, and required application forms could be found on the Embassy website at https://ci.usembassy.gov.
The announcement places heavy emphasis on strict compliance with formatting and submission rules, noting that proposals that fail to follow the requirements can be deemed ineligible. All documents must be submitted in English, budgets must be presented in U.S. dollars, and pages should be numbered. Files must be formatted for 8.5 x 11 paper. If Microsoft Word is used, documents must be single-spaced in 12-point Times New Roman with at least 1-inch margins. Applicants are also expected to ensure that the proposal directly addresses the stated goals and objectives of the funding opportunity rather than presenting a generic project.
A complete application package includes several required components. First are the mandatory federal forms: SF-424 (for organizations) or SF-424-I (for individuals), SF-424A (Budget Information for Non-Construction Programs), and SF-424B (Assurances for Non-Construction Programs). In addition, applicants must provide a summary coversheet that identifies the applicant and organization (if relevant), the proposal date, the program title, the proposed start and end dates, and a brief statement of the program purpose.
The core narrative is a proposal of no more than 10 pages, written so that a reviewer unfamiliar with the project can understand exactly what will be done and why. While applicants may choose their own format, the narrative must include specific sections: a proposal summary describing objectives and anticipated impact; an introduction to the organization or individual that demonstrates capacity to deliver (including information on any prior U.S. Embassy or U.S. government funding); a clear problem statement supported with relevant context; and a set of program goals and measurable objectives. The proposal must also lay out the planned activities, explain the methods and design (how the approach will address the problem and lead to the intended results), and present a realistic schedule including dates, times, and locations for activities and events. Applicants must identify key personnel, their roles, qualifications, and the share of their time dedicated to the project, and list program partners and any sub-awardees with a description of each party's involvement.
Monitoring, evaluation, and sustainability are treated as essential elements rather than optional add-ons. Applicants must explain how they will monitor implementation during the grant period to ensure activities stay on track and how they will evaluate outcomes to determine whether the project is meeting its goals. They must also describe future funding or sustainability plans, such as how the work will continue after the grant ends or what other resources may support ongoing impact.
Financial documentation includes both the SF-424A budget and a separate, detailed budget justification narrative. The justification is expected to explain each cost line in practical terms so reviewers can understand what the money buys and why each expense is necessary and reasonable. The announcement also suggests attachments that can strengthen an application, including one-page CVs or resumes for key staff, letters of support from partners clarifying roles and responsibilities, and any official permission letters required to conduct proposed activities.
Finally, the opportunity requires organizational applicants (individuals are exempt) to complete several standard U.S. government registrations, all of which are described as free of charge. These include obtaining a unique identifier number from Dun and Bradstreet (DUNS), securing an NCAGE/CAGE code (NATO Commercial and Government Entity Code), and maintaining an active registration in SAM.gov (System for Award Management). These registrations are a prerequisite for award and are often time-consuming, so the announcement implicitly encourages applicants to plan ahead to avoid last-minute eligibility issues.Apply for PAS SIV 100 FY22 APS
