Opportunity Information: Apply for SCAISB 22 AW 003 12162021

The Climate Change and Conflict Resolution TechCamp is a U.S. Department of State, U.S. Mission to Pakistan grant opportunity designed to support a practical, youth-focused program in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP) province. The project centers on bringing together university students and youth influencers with subject matter specialists and technology experts to strengthen participants' ability to recognize and analyze local problems linked to climate change, resource scarcity, and pollution. The overall aim is not only learning or awareness, but helping young people translate that knowledge into workable community-level solutions by developing proposals and then carrying out activities that address the challenges they identify.

This opportunity was offered as a discretionary award using a cooperative agreement, meaning the implementing organization would typically work in close coordination with the funding agency during planning and delivery. The program was listed under CFDA 19.501 and categorized under an "Other" funding activity area (as specified in the solicitation). The grant anticipated a single award, with a maximum funding level (award ceiling) of $100,000, depending on funding availability. The opportunity was created on December 16, 2021, with an original application deadline of February 15, 2022.

Eligibility was broadly described as "Others" (with additional eligibility details referenced in the full announcement), indicating that applicants were not limited to only one standard institution type. In practical terms, the solicitation points toward an organization capable of convening youth participants in KP, engaging credible climate/resource/pollution experts and technologists, and managing a process that moves from capacity-building to proposal development and real implementation. The core deliverable implied by the description is a structured TechCamp-style engagement that results in tangible community activities designed and led by youth, focused on reducing climate-related stresses and related conflict drivers in their local contexts.
