ADDENDUM TO SPAN RFP DATED OCTOBER 14, 1997
On October 14, 1997, the United States Agency for International
Development (USAID) and the International Research and Exchanges
Board (IREX) issued a request for proposals to strengthen existing
partnerships between U.S. and Russian organizations under the
Sustaining Partnerships into the Next Century (SPAN) program.
The United States Information Agency (USIA) will shortly announce a
request for proposals intended exclusively for university and college
partnerships throughout the NIS-the NIS College and University
Partnership Program-in the following academic fields: law,
business/economics, education, public administration/public policy,
and journalism/communications.
In order to effectively distribute assistance funding and avoid
duplication of your efforts, we ask that American universities and
colleges interested in partnerships in the above fields apply for
funding under the USIA program.
Russian and American University partnerships interested in other
fields, and all other relevant partnerships, should apply to the SPAN
program administered by USAID and IREX. USIA and USAID missions will
jointly review proposals from universities and colleges.
We hope this clarification will help as you apply for these programs.
