Opportunity Information: Apply for PAS NEWZEALAND 2019 002

The Young Pacific Leaders Conference 2019/2020 is a U.S. Department of State grant opportunity administered by the U.S. Mission to New Zealand (U.S. Embassy New Zealand) to support a comprehensive leadership program for emerging leaders from the Pacific region. The core purpose is to equip young Pacific leaders with practical skills, knowledge, and regional networks that help them play stronger roles in economic growth and civic development across the Pacific. The opportunity reflects the United States' stated interest, as a Pacific nation, in long-term partnership with Pacific communities and governments to reinforce regional security, strengthen economic development, and build lasting people-to-people ties. A central theme is connectivity: creating relationships across countries and communities so that future regional challenges can be addressed collaboratively rather than in isolation.

This funding is offered through a cooperative agreement, which generally means the U.S. government anticipates an active role during implementation (such as coordination, guidance, or collaboration), rather than simply awarding funds and stepping back. The funding activity category is listed as "Other," indicating the project does not fall neatly into a single standard category and is instead defined by the specific program design proposed by applicants. The award is intended to support the planning and delivery of a structured conference or conference-centered program that meaningfully builds leadership capacity, fosters civic engagement, and strengthens cross-Pacific networks among participants.

Eligible applicants are limited to nonprofits that hold U.S. 501(c)(3) tax-exempt status, excluding institutions of higher education. In practice, that means U.S.-based charitable organizations are the intended implementers, and they are expected to submit proposals detailing how they would design and manage the program, recruit and support participants, deliver training and programming, and produce measurable leadership and network outcomes. The opportunity was posted on July 16, 2019, with an original closing date of August 30, 2019. The maximum funding per award (award ceiling) is $250,000, and the agency anticipated making up to 10 awards, suggesting support for multiple implementing organizations or multiple program rounds/components under the umbrella of the Young Pacific Leaders effort.

For reference and tracking, the opportunity is identified as "Young Pacific Leaders Conference 2019/2020" with Funding Opportunity Number PAS NEWZEALAND 2019 002, and it is associated with CFDA number 19.040, a common identifier for State Department public diplomacy and related assistance programs. Overall, the grant is positioned as a regional investment in leadership development and collaboration, aiming to build a pipeline of Pacific leaders who are better prepared to contribute to their societies while maintaining durable partnerships across the Pacific and with the United States.
