The Public Affairs Section of the U.S. Consulate General in Mumbai (PAS Mumbai) seeks proposals for a project entitled “India-Afghanistan Tech Camp on Sustainable Urbanization.” The proposed project will consist of a grantee organizing and implementing, at the direction of Department of State staff, a 2-3-day tech camp conducted in English with simultaneous translation for Dari and Pashto, held before December 31, 2018, on sustainable urbanization solutions in Mumbai for 50 participants – 25 from Afghanistan and 25 from India, in partnership with Department of State’s staff from the Bureau of International Information Programs (IIP), U.S. Mission India and U.S. Mission Afghanistan. The grantee will identify local tech experts that Department of State staff will confirm to conduct the workshop and mentor participants.  Ample time would be allocated for participants to learn about each other’s urban challenges and to network and build lasting cross-border connections. The grantee would be responsible for helping to coordinate or implement a series of after-workshop programs or projects that provide ongoing mentorship and support for participants, working in conjunction with Department of State staff.
