Summary from the notice

AEIF is designed to increase the impact of the U.S. government’s investment in exchange participants and programs by helping alumni develop and implement projects that support U.S. policy objectives and promote shared interests – benefiting both the United States and local communities. Since its inception in 2011, AEIF has funded over 500 alumni-led projects around the world through a competitive global competition. This year, all AEIF projects must celebrate and promote the 250th anniversary of the founding of the United States of America. In addition, projects must help make the United States safer, stronger, and more prosperous. Priority will be given to projects that deliver tangible benefits to U.S. interests, elevate U.S. leadership, reinforce the United States as Indonesia’s partner of choice, and focus on one of the priority areas outlined below.

Priority Areas:

• Security and Protection from Transnational Threats: Projects that counter online scams, cyber fraud, illicit finance, drug trafficking, and other transnational threats through prevention-focused education and public awareness, demonstrating U.S. leadership in technology, cybersecurity, and law enforcement.

• Artificial Intelligence, Digital Innovation, and Workforce Competitiveness: Projects that strengthen job-relevant skills, productivity, and workforce readiness through responsible, applied use of artificial intelligence and digital technologies, while explicitly highlighting U.S. leadership and models in AI innovation, STEM education, ethical technology development, and private-sector-driven digital growth. Projects should emphasize practical applications of AI that enhance economic competitiveness, efficiency, and innovation, and reinforce the United States’ position as the global leader in advanced technologies.

• Entrepreneurship, Innovation, and Market-Based Growth: Projects that promote innovation and small business development by helping individuals build practical business and innovation skills. Projects should highlight the strength and competitiveness of the U.S. economy, encourage U.S. commercial diplomacy, and underline benefits to the United States – such as deterrence of illegal immigration.
