Opportunity Information: Apply for SCAISB 22 AW 019 01212022
The "First Aid Training for Media" grant opportunity is a U.S. Department of State public diplomacy funding program administered through the Public Affairs Section at the U.S. Consulate General in Peshawar, Pakistan. Its purpose is to strengthen the safety and emergency readiness of working journalists by giving them practical first aid skills they can use immediately in the field, especially in high-risk situations where professional medical help may be delayed. The program is designed to advance Mission Pakistan's broader goal of building journalist capacity to protect themselves and others while reporting.
The core focus of the training is hands-on, lifesaving care that can be delivered before first responders arrive. The grant emphasizes "self-aid" and "buddy-aid" skills, meaning participants should be able to treat their own injuries when possible and also provide rapid assistance to colleagues or bystanders. The training content is specifically aimed at interventions for two leading preventable causes of death in violent incidents and emergencies: severe bleeding (hemorrhage) and airway problems (inadequate airway). In practical terms, projects funded under this opportunity would be expected to teach media professionals how to recognize life-threatening bleeding, control it quickly, and manage basic airway issues long enough to keep someone alive until emergency services take over.
The target audience is 80 to 100 media professionals, including reporters and photo and video journalists, with trainings delivered through press clubs across Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP). The program is expected to run for roughly six to eight months, allowing time to reach multiple press clubs and to structure training in a way that is feasible for working journalists. A key requirement is that the project be tailored to local needs and realities in KP, and that implementation occurs within KP itself, explicitly including the Newly Merged Districts (NMDs). This geographic requirement signals that proposals should account for varying security conditions, travel constraints, and access considerations across the province, rather than concentrating activities only in major urban centers.
Funding is offered as a discretionary grant under the Department of State (CFDA 19.501). The opportunity anticipates making one award, with a maximum total project budget (award ceiling) of USD 30,000 for the full grant period. Applicants are expected to design a complete project that fits within that cap, covering all program costs across the six to eight months. The funding opportunity was posted on January 21, 2022, with an original application deadline of March 22, 2022, under Funding Opportunity Number SCAISB 22 AW 019 01212022.
Overall, this grant supports a focused, practical training initiative that equips journalists in KP with essential emergency medical skills for field reporting environments where violence, terrorism-related incidents, and unrest can place media workers among the first people on scene and among those most likely to encounter traumatic injuries before professional help is available.Apply for SCAISB 22 AW 019 01212022
