The U.S. Embassy Pristina announces a Request for Applications for projects to preserve important cultural sites within Kosovo.

Selected applicants will be responsible for all aspects of the project, to include contracting for goods and services; ensuring that timelines are met and work is accomplished according to schedule; receiving necessary government of Kosovo permits and authorizations to conduct the work (the U.S. Embassy may be able to provide facilitative assistance in this regard); submitting all necessary work plans, financial reports and narrative reports to the U.S. Embassy as stipulated in the cooperative agreement. Total U.S. Department of State funding for these cooperative agreements is $1,472,000. Any non-governmental organizations (NGOs) or private institutions in Kosovo, the Balkans, the U.S. or elsewhere with experience in the work described in the program goals and activities are encouraged to submit proposals.
