Opportunity Information: Apply for LUXEM PDS FY23 01

The U.S. Embassy in Luxembourg, through its Public Diplomacy Section, is offering a discretionary grant opportunity called "Accelerating STEM and Climate Ambitions" (Funding Opportunity Number: LUXEM PDS FY23 01; CFDA: 19.040). The central purpose is to fund programs that strengthen bilateral ties between the United States and Luxembourg by expanding cooperation and public engagement around STEM fields and climate-related priorities. In practice, the Embassy is looking for projects that help Luxembourg audiences better understand U.S. perspectives and approaches in areas like science, technology, sustainability, and environmental protection, while also building lasting connections between U.S. and Luxembourg institutions and communities.

The types of projects encouraged under this opportunity are broad, but they must clearly relate to STEM and/or climate ambitions and be designed for Luxembourg participants. Priority themes include space and satellite technology, space exploration, biotechnology, green technology, clean energy, climate change, and the wider climate crisis. The Embassy specifically mentions formats such as educational programming for youth, professional development or training for educators, public debates and discussions, exhibits, and other public-facing engagement activities. Proposals that emphasize hands-on and interactive STEM skill-building are particularly relevant, including activities focused on computer programming, coding, and robotics. Environmental programming is also a strong fit, especially efforts that promote sustainability, clean air and water, and practical measures that support environmental protection.

A major feature of this grant is the required U.S. connection. Every proposed program must include a clear U.S. element, such as collaboration with U.S. experts or the incorporation of American best practices in STEM, space research, climate and sustainability policy, renewable energy, environmental protection, or biotechnology. The intention is not only technical exchange, but also public diplomacy: projects should be structured to promote increased understanding of U.S. policy and perspectives among Luxembourg audiences. One firm rule is that any speaker who is paid using grant funds must be a U.S. citizen, which applicants need to account for when planning panels, trainings, lectures, or other expert-led components.

Eligibility is open to a range of applicant types from both countries, as long as they are not for-profit entities. Eligible applicants include U.S. or Luxembourgish not-for-profit organizations (including think tanks and civil society/NGOs), public and private educational institutions, public international organizations, governmental institutions, and individuals. A key condition for U.S.-based organizations is that they must partner with a Luxembourgish organization in order to apply. For-profit or commercial entities are explicitly not eligible.

From the funding details provided, the award ceiling is USD 15,000, and the original application deadline listed is May 15, 2023 (with a creation date of January 20, 2023). Applicants are directed to consult the full Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) via the U.S. Embassy Luxembourg grants webpage (https://lu.usembassy.gov/grants-program/) or the related documents attached to the posting on Grants.gov for complete requirements, submission instructions, and any additional selection criteria.
