Description

The U.S. Mission to Brazil is offering grants through the U.S. Ambassadors Fund for Cultural Preservation (AFCP) to organizations interested in preserving cultural heritage in Brazil. The grants will fund individual projects in three areas: cultural sites, cultural objects and collections, and forms of traditional cultural expression. Examples of projects include restoration of historical buildings, conservation treatment for objects, and documentation of traditional music and dance forms. The deadline for submitting project proposals is December 26, 2023. The AFCP aims to preserve cultural sites and objects of historical or cultural significance in Brazil, while demonstrating respect for other cultures. The U.S. Embassy and Consulates in Brazil will give preference to projects that focus on culture affected by the climate crisis, Afro-descendent culture, and the culture of indigenous peoples. The selection process involves submitting a concept note before a full proposal application. Eligible applicants include foreign institutions of higher education, foreign organizations, foreign public entities, U.S. non-profit organizations, and U.S. institutions of higher education.
