Opportunity Information: Apply for PAS JOR FY23 001
The 2023 Alumni Engagement Innovation Fund (AEIF 2023) is a discretionary grant opportunity announced by the U.S. Department of State through the U.S. Mission to Jordan. It is designed specifically for alumni of U.S. government-funded or U.S. government-sponsored exchange programs who want to take the skills, ideas, and professional connections gained during their exchange experience and turn them into practical, community-focused projects in Jordan. The program supports alumni-led efforts to develop innovative solutions to real challenges, with an emphasis this year on strengthening economic prosperity, expanding inclusive economic growth, and promoting innovation and skill-building that can improve job opportunities.
Applicants must apply as a team rather than as an individual. The Embassy is seeking proposals from groups consisting of at least two eligible exchange program alumni, meaning past participants in qualifying U.S. government-sponsored or facilitated exchange programs. The competition is open to this alumni community (listed under eligibility as "Others," with the key requirement being exchange alumni status), and proposals must meet all eligibility requirements described by the program. In practice, the fund is meant to empower alumni to build on what they learned abroad and implement projects that are locally relevant and feasible, not just conceptual ideas.
The funding opportunity is identified as Funding Opportunity Number PAS JOR FY23 001 under CFDA 19.022, and awards are issued as grants. The Embassy anticipates making about two awards, with a maximum award amount (ceiling) of $35,000 per project. While the announcement does not list a minimum award amount in the provided text, the structure suggests relatively small, targeted grants intended to help teams pilot, launch, or scale a concrete initiative rather than fund large, multi-year programs. Since AEIF began in 2011, it has supported nearly 500 alumni-led projects worldwide, indicating that it is an established mechanism for turning alumni ideas into implementable community projects through a competitive selection process.
Applications for the Jordan competition were due by March 12, 2023, at 5:00 p.m. EET (Amman time). Proposals were to be submitted by email to AmmanGrants@state.gov. The opportunity was created on January 11, 2023, and the original closing date was March 12, 2023. Overall, AEIF 2023 in Jordan is best understood as a small-grants program that mobilizes U.S. exchange alumni teams to design and deliver innovative, skills-based responses to community needs, with a strong thematic preference for projects that support employment, entrepreneurship, workforce skills, and broader inclusive economic opportunity.Apply for PAS JOR FY23 001
