Description (from the official listing)

The U.S. Embassy is pleased to announce a call for proposals from individuals and organizations for its English-Language Program for Disadvantaged Communities. The program is focused on English-language training for youth aged 12-17 from underserved communities, especially those located outside of the capital city. In addition to in-person programs, instruction may be offered partly virtually. The program objectives are: To offer free-of-charge English-language instruction to Azerbaijani students from underserved communities. To create highly effective English-language instruction using current, student-centered methodologies to improve the students’ ability to comprehend and communicate in real-world contexts. To instill knowledge of and appreciation for American culture and values, to promote community service, and to enhance critical-thinking skills among program participants. Participants and Audiences: The intended audiences for potential projects are individuals from disadvantaged communities (rural areas, low-income, IDPs etc.). Secondary school students and young people living in rural and vulnerable communities are the targeted beneficiaries and special consideration will be given to programs working in regions outside of Baku. Proposed programs should include contingency plans to accommodate potential prohibitions on in-person gatherings.
