The U.S. Embassy in Phnom Penh and the Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs at the U.S. Department of State are pleased to announce the fiscal year 2022 call for proposals for the Ambassadors Fund for Cultural Preservation (AFCP) Grants Program. The total amount of funding available will be between $10,000 and $500,000 per project, and the deadline for applications is November 30, 2021.
The fund was established to help countries preserve their cultural heritage. For Cambodia, it is aimed at preserving major archaeological sites, historic buildings and monuments, major museum collections, and forms of traditional cultural expression that have historical or cultural significance and are accessible to the public and protected by Cambodian law. The restoration of the northern staircase of Preah Vihear temple is one among many ongoing projects the United States has supported under this program.
