Opportunity Information: Apply for ND NOFO 19 110 REPOST
The U.S. Department of State, through the Public Affairs Section of the U.S. Mission to India (REPS Office), announced a competitive, discretionary grant opportunity titled "World Affairs in Theory and Practice" (Funding Opportunity Number: ND NOFO 19 110 REPOST). The program is designed to be implemented at the New Delhi American Center (NDAC) and focuses on giving high-achieving undergraduate students a structured way to engage with major international issues using both academic content and hands-on experiential learning.
The target participants are undergraduate-level students who are connected to academic pathways such as international affairs, sustainable development, human rights, health policy, business, and related fields. The core of the program is a series of three Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs) offered by American universities, each centered on a specific theme: global health, environmental security, and international trade. Rather than being purely self-paced online learning, these MOOCs are meant to be "expertly facilitated" at NDAC, with weekly meetings that run for about 4 to 6 weeks per course, depending on the MOOC format selected. This facilitation element suggests the grant is intended to provide mentorship, structure, and discussion-based support that helps students complete the courses and connect the material to real-world contexts.
After each MOOC is completed, participants take part in a live simulation of diplomatic negotiations tied to the same theme as the course they just finished. The simulations are meant to bridge the gap between theory and practice by placing students in roles where they must negotiate, collaborate, and problem-solve in ways that resemble real diplomatic or multilateral policy processes. This design emphasizes applied learning outcomes, such as understanding competing national or stakeholder interests, practicing communication and negotiation skills, and grappling with the complexity of global challenges beyond what is captured in lecture content alone.
A final element of the program is an education advising component. Participants are introduced to EducationUSA advisors from the U.S.-India Educational Foundation (USIEF) and receive counseling on opportunities for pursuing higher education in the United States. This adds a practical pipeline element to the program by connecting interested students to credible guidance on U.S. degree options, application processes, and study pathways.
