Opportunity Information: Apply for PAS UKRAINE 2019 011
The Ukraine Media Partnership Program is a U.S. Department of State (U.S. Mission to Ukraine) grant opportunity designed to strengthen free, independent, and financially sustainable media in Ukraine through hands-on professional exchanges with U.S. media organizations. The core idea is to pair Ukrainian media outlets with U.S. outlets of similar size so that Ukrainian journalists and media staff working in print, online, and broadcast can spend time engaging directly with American counterparts. The exchanges are meant to be practical rather than purely academic, with training and day-to-day professional exposure organized by the U.S. partner outlet. The program frames independent media as a key pillar of democratic development in Ukraine, and it aims to build institutional capacity in a way that helps outlets remain viable and resilient.
A central expectation is the creation of multiple outlet-to-outlet partnerships each year. The Public Affairs Section (PAS) indicates it would like to see four partnerships per year, meaning proposals are expected to show a clear plan for identifying, matching, and managing several Ukrainian-U.S. pairings during the project period. Another emphasis is geographic diversity: applicants are expected to include media outlets from across Ukraine rather than concentrating solely in Kyiv, and the program specifically calls for including outlets located in regional cities. In practice, a competitive proposal would likely explain how it will recruit and select Ukrainian participants from different regions, how it will choose appropriate U.S. partner organizations, and how each partnership will deliver structured learning outcomes that strengthen editorial independence, professional standards, and operational sustainability.
The funding mechanism is a cooperative agreement, which typically means the Department of State anticipates active involvement in project oversight and collaboration during implementation. The opportunity is discretionary and was released under Funding Opportunity Number PAS UKRAINE 2019 011, listed under CFDA 19.900. Eligibility is limited to nonprofits with U.S. IRS 501(c)(3) status (excluding institutions of higher education). The program anticipated making one award total.
In terms of budget and timeline, the Department indicated it would likely have $425,000 available to support a one-year cooperative agreement. If additional funds became available, the award could increase up to a ceiling of $725,000 for a project period of up to 24 months. The notice also allows for possible extensions of the period of performance for an additional 24 months, granted in 12-month increments, which creates a pathway for longer-term programming if funding and performance justify it. Application details and full instructions were directed to the U.S. Embassy Kyiv website in the official Notice of Funding Opportunity.Apply for PAS UKRAINE 2019 011
