About this opportunity

The Department of State's Embassy Bishkek Public Diplomacy Section (PDS) announces an open competition to implement a program supporting the American Corners network in the Kyrgyz Republic—the government's primary information and cultural centers. They showcase American innovation to foreign audiences and promote demand for products and services, particularly as the United States celebrates the 250th anniversary of its founding. The program will provide strategic guidance, administrative oversight, and resource support to the network of six American Corners located in Osh —serving approximately 200,000 visitors annually. Activities will enhance English language capacity through conversation clubs and educational resources; promote STEM excellence through hands-on workshops and mobile makerspaces; foster cultural exchange through speaker programs and events celebrating the 250th anniversary of independence; and maintain reliable internet connectivity and upgraded facilities to serve as premier platforms for Embassy-driven campaigns. Target participants include emerging voices aged 14-30 (university students, young educators), students aged 12-18 in rural areas with limited access to educational resources, and established opinion leaders and teachers who can multiply impact. Kamkor Center initiatives demonstrate American leadership in accessibility through the the Americans with Disabilities Act and promote increased access to information and public spaces by providing tailored resources and programs about the United States to the Kyrgyz public, including people with disabilities. By focusing on these priorities, this program will create long-term partnership opportunities with educational institutions and foster deeper -Kyrgyz ties in high-growth sectors. The program will increase engagement with world-leading American educational resources and technological platforms while promoting American values of free speech and innovation. By promoting increased knowledge of American educational and professional opportunities, the program will ensure the United States remains the partner of choice for educational exchange, cultural engagement, and technological innovation in the Kyrgyz Republic. Please follow all instructions below.
