About this opportunity

The Department of State’s Embassy Ouagadougou is pleased to announce an open competition for organizations to submit innovative proposals aimed at strengthening the relationship between the United States and Burkina Faso. This funding opportunity is designed to advance shared priorities that promote economic growth, enhance security cooperation, and highlight American innovation and excellence.Through this program, the Embassy seeks to support projects that foster commercial partnerships, encourage co-investment, and expand opportunities for mutual economic advancement. With the focus on collaboration between and Burkinabè organizations, the program aims to move beyond traditional models of assistance and instead build a sustainable, mutually beneficial relationship that drive progress in both countries.A central objective of the program is to deepen security ties between the United States and Burkina Faso. This will be achieved by supporting joint law enforcement initiatives, protecting critical infrastructure, and reinforcing Burkina Faso’s role in promoting regional stability. The program encourages proposals that address pressing security challenges, such as countering transnational crime, strengthening border security, and improving crisis response. By working on these issues, both nations can contribute to a safer and more stable West Africa, while also advancing their own national interests.In addition to economic and security objectives, the program places a strong emphasis on showcasing American excellence and leadership. Through the Freedom 250 campaign, the Embassy celebrates the United States’ legacy of promotion of democratic values. The program also seeks to highlight achievements in technology and diplomacy, providing a platform for Burkinabè partners to engage with American experts and institutions. Expanding opportunities for English language learning and entrepreneurship education is another key component, as these skills are essential for accessing American markets, workforce development, and long-term economic growth.The target audience for this Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) includes a range of stakeholders. Burkinabè and American organizations—such as non-profits, educational institutions, and private sector groups—are encouraged to apply, particularly those with experience in economic development and security-related projects. The program welcomes proposals whose target Burkinabè audiences including youth, media personalities and influencers, policy makers, and populations residing outside of Ouagadougou. By bringing together a broad coalition, the Embassy aims to maximize the program’s impact and ensure that its benefits are widely shared. Eligible applicants must be registered organizations in Burkina Faso or the United States with a demonstrated track record of implementing successful projects in relevant fields.Through this call for applications, Embassy Ouagadougou seeks innovative projects that advance interests by promoting shared strategic objectives between the United States and Burkina Faso. This NOFO prioritizes initiatives that deliver clear, tangible benefits for the American people while strengthening our partnerships and supporting mutually beneficial development.Proposals should advance foreign policy goals, offer practical and cost‑effective solutions, and promote lasting cooperation that reinforces American leadership and security. Projects must demonstrate measurable results, responsible use of taxpayer resources, and a credible plan for sustaining impact beyond the period of government funding.Each submission must clearly explain how the proposed activities will advance priorities, describe expected outcomes and indicators of success, and outline how the project will remain viable after support ends.
