Description
1) Objective
PD Harare invites proposals for projects that strengthen networks between the people of the United States and the people of Zimbabwe through exchanges highlighting our shared goals and values. All programs MUST include an American component, such as an American expert engagement (physical or virtual) in Zimbabwe or Zimbabweans traveling to the United States to collaborate and exchange best practices in a specific field that will promote increased understanding of U.S. perspectives. Projects that incorporate strong American components into their design will be prioritized over other proposals.
This Annual Program Statement welcomes proposals in areas that:
- Promote democratic principles including freedom of speech and civic participation; particularly if they share best practices for citizen advocacy or explore the challenges modern media houses face in a digital economy and the ethical standards needed to gain public confidence.
- Advance an inclusive economy; particularly connecting social entrepreneurs and the creative community with online marketing tools.
- Deepen U.S.-Zimbabwean university partnerships; particularly if they bolster stronger research capacity and explore opportunities for increased internationalization of tertiary education in Zimbabwe.
- Promote understanding and use of emerging technology for Zimbabweans to make the most of innovation to promote development.
- Deepen U.S.-Zimbabwean professional networks through organized workshops and rekindling alumni exchange partnerships and networks to solve new problems.
- Foster social inclusion of underserved communities, such as disabled persons, minority ethnic groups, LGBTQI+, and those in remote rural areas.
