Opportunity Information: Apply for SFOP0007066
The Department of State, Bureau of Oceans and International Environmental and Scientific Affairs (OES), posted a discretionary funding opportunity titled "Building Lasting Legacies for the Science Envoys Program" (Funding Opportunity Number SFOP0007066). The award is structured as a cooperative agreement, which generally means the federal agency expects to stay actively involved during the project rather than simply issuing funds and stepping back. The program sits within the Science and Technology and other Research and Development activity category, and it is associated with CFDA number 19.017.
The purpose of the opportunity is to fund an organization to handle end-to-end logistics and program support for activities connected to the U.S. Science Envoys initiative. In practical terms, the selected awardee would be responsible for building and managing travel itineraries and arranging the full range of operational details that allow Science Envoys to carry out engagements effectively. This includes coordinating both international and domestic travel, covering related travel costs, and managing on-the-ground logistics such as securing venues, preparing and sending invitations, and developing meeting agendas and schedules. The scope suggests a heavy emphasis on operational execution, stakeholder coordination, and the ability to run complex, multi-stop travel and event programs smoothly.
In addition to travel and event management, the award also covers communications work aimed at extending the visibility and impact of Science Envoy engagements. The recipient is expected to create and implement informational campaigns in foreign media markets that feature current and/or former U.S. Science Envoys. This implies planning messaging and outreach that can work across different countries and media environments, coordinating with local or regional media channels, and shaping campaign materials that highlight the Envoys and their work in a way that supports public diplomacy and science engagement goals.
Funding for the award is capped at $222,000, and the Department of State anticipated making one award under this opportunity. The notice was created on June 10, 2020, with an original application deadline of August 3, 2020. Eligibility is listed broadly as "Others," with further clarification referenced in an "Additional Information on Eligibility" section (not included in the provided text), which typically means prospective applicants would need to consult the full announcement for the precise types of organizations allowed to apply and any restrictions.
Overall, this opportunity is essentially a program management and strategic communications grant in support of the Science Envoys Program: one organization is funded to coordinate the Envoys' travel and events and to run targeted media and information campaigns overseas that amplify the Envoys' presence and lasting influence.Apply for SFOP0007066
