Opportunity Information: Apply for PAS ID 19 001
The U.S. Embassy Jakarta Media Small Grants Competition (Funding Opportunity Number PAS ID 19 001) is a discretionary grant program run by the U.S. Mission to Indonesia that provides small-grant support for journalism-related projects carried out in Indonesia. The opportunity is designed for journalists and journalism professionals who have participated in U.S. government-sponsored exchange programs, with the goal of helping them develop and implement media projects that contribute to the journalism field. All proposed activities must be implemented in Indonesia, and applicants are specifically encouraged to design projects located in Sumatra, West Java, Kalimantan, or Papua. Projects based in those regions may receive priority consideration, signaling an interest in supporting work beyond major national centers and strengthening media initiatives in a wider range of Indonesian provinces.
A key timing requirement is that project preparation must begin before September 30, 2019. This is framed as a start or initiation requirement rather than a hard project end date, since the guidance makes clear that projects do not need to be completed by September 30, 2019. The application window for the competition closed on July 5, 2019, and the grant mechanism is listed as a standard grant (rather than a contract). The program is associated with CFDA number 19.040 and is categorized under an "Other" funding activity category, which typically indicates a flexible scope as long as the project aligns with the competition's media and journalism focus.
Eligibility is tightly defined. Applicants must be Indonesian nationals applying as individuals or as teams of individuals, and they must be past or current participants in U.S. government-sponsored exchange programs. In addition, they must be working as journalists or working directly within the field of journalism, which suggests the funding is meant for practitioners and not for unrelated academic or general civil society proposals. The competition also sets an explicit expectation of non-discrimination: applicants must commit to equal treatment and non-discrimination regardless of race, religion, ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation, or political affiliation. Commercial firms are not eligible under this mechanism, meaning the grant is intended for individual practitioners (or teams of individuals) rather than for-profit media companies or other business entities.
In terms of scale, the posted award ceiling is USD 20,000, indicating the program is aimed at relatively modest, targeted projects rather than large multi-year initiatives. While the source information lists "ExpectedAwards:" without a number, the ceiling provides a practical sense of the maximum available per award. Overall, the opportunity supports exchange alumni working in journalism who want to launch or expand a concrete media project in Indonesia, with a particular emphasis on proposals that reach audiences and communities in Sumatra, West Java, Kalimantan, and Papua and that meet clear standards on inclusion and non-discrimination.Apply for PAS ID 19 001
