Opportunity Information: Apply for HKG NOFO FY18 003
The Fulbright Program in Hong Kong and Macau grant opportunity is a U.S. Department of State, U.S. Consulate General Hong Kong and Macau Public Affairs Section (PAS) request for a partner organization to jointly run and administer Fulbright activities in Hong Kong and Macau. The program is positioned as a cooperative effort, meaning the U.S. government expects to stay actively involved during implementation rather than simply issuing funds and stepping back. The overall purpose is to support academic exchange and strengthen cultural and educational ties between the United States and Hong Kong and Macau through Fulbright programming.
This opportunity is issued as a discretionary award under a Cooperative Agreement funding instrument, listed under CFDA 19.040. The announcement is identified as Funding Opportunity Number HKG NOFO FY18 003 and was created on 2018-08-07, with an original application closing date of 2018-08-15. The awarding agency is the U.S. Mission to China, reflecting the Consulate General's role in overseeing the program locally in Hong Kong and Macau. The funding ceiling is set at USD 50,000, indicating the maximum amount available under this notice, with the expectation of making award(s) within that limit.
Eligibility is limited to applicants that qualify to receive U.S. government grants and that can demonstrate the capacity to develop and implement exchange programming specifically in Hong Kong and Macau. While the listing shows eligible applicants as "Unrestricted," the narrative makes clear that eligibility is practically constrained to those who meet U.S. grant eligibility requirements and have the operational ability to run programming in the target locations. The notice also states a clear restriction that for-profit organizations are not eligible for funding under this opportunity, so applicants should be non-profit, educational, or other eligible non-commercial entities and individuals as permitted under standard U.S. grant rules.
In terms of competitive preference, the Consulate indicates it will favor applicants with demonstrated skills and experience in facilitating and managing academic exchange programs, particularly those that advance mutual understanding and build cultural connections between the United States and Hong Kong and Macau. In practice, that implies that strong proposals will likely show credible administrative infrastructure, experience supporting scholars or students, the ability to coordinate with universities and host institutions, and an approach that aligns with the Fulbright program's academic and cultural exchange mission. Because it is a cooperative agreement, applicants should also be prepared to collaborate closely with PAS on planning, oversight, and execution throughout the project period.
In summary, this is a relatively small, targeted grant (up to USD 50,000) intended to select a capable, eligible partner to help implement Fulbright programming in Hong Kong and Macau under close coordination with the U.S. Consulate General. The key screening factors are basic U.S. grant eligibility, non-profit status (not for-profit), and proven ability to run academic exchange activities locally, with added emphasis on strengthening U.S.-Hong Kong/Macau cultural and educational ties.Apply for HKG NOFO FY18 003
