Limiting Language:

Only one applicant from a university or non-profit research institute will be considered in each application cycle. Institutions are expected to conduct an internal review and selection process, as the Foundation will not consider multiple letters of intent from a single institution. For purposes of this policy, the Foundation considers the parent university to be the relevant institution. Accordingly, a university with a law school, medical school, several teaching hospitals, and a faculty of arts and sciences may only submit one letter of intent in total. If a university system, such as a state-wide university system, comprises several universities, each university within the system may nominate one applicant.

Program Overview
The Greenwall Faculty Scholars Program in Bioethics is a career development award to enable early-career faculty members to carry out innovative bioethics research. The program is designed to support projects that address a significant bioethics problem and extend beyond current work in bioethics, while fostering a community of Scholars and Alums committed to advancing the field.

Each year, the Foundation selects approximately three Greenwall Faculty Scholars to receive 50 percent salary support for three years to pursue a defined research project and further develop their research program.

Scholars and Alums attend twice-yearly meetings, where they present their works in progress, receive feedback and mentoring from the Faculty Scholars Program Committee and other Scholars and Alums, and have an opportunity to cultivate collaborative relationships across institutions and disciplines. Third-year Scholars are expected to help plan these meetings. Program Alums remain actively engaged, providing mentorship to newer Scholars and creating a sustained network for professional development, collaboration, and scholarly exchange. In addition, all first-year Scholars participate in a philosophical bioethics seminar series, and other professional development opportunities may be offered through the Program.

The Program Committee oversees the Faculty Scholars Program, selects Scholars and recommends them for funding, and plays an active role in mentorship and professional development activities.

Under this NOFO, you may submit only one application under your organization’s UEI.

Summary 
This Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) supports strengthening country systems to detect, notify, and respond to outbreaks by applying time-bound, evidence-based frameworks, such as the 7-1-7 target, which aims to detect outbreaks within 7 days, notify within 1 day, and respond within 7 days. This target was selected to promote rapid containment and minimize health and economic impacts. 

Activities under this award will be conducted outside the United States and its territories. Building on previous outbreak experience and other international health emergencies, this NOFO advances American interests by reinforcing systems that protect both the United States and recipient nations. 

Activities focus on improving early detection of biological threats, timely notification across sectors and borders, and effective response to contain outbreaks before they spread, consistent with the Detect, Notify, Respond (D- N-R) framework. Efforts include strengthening surveillance, expanding laboratory readiness, enhancing information flows, and improving response operations to reduce economic effects and improve health. These activities emphasize burden sharing, accountability, and efficiency to ensure benefits to Americans at home and abroad, while helping recipient nations achieve long-term self-reliance and stability.

Summary 
This notice of funding opportunity (NOFO) will enhance capacity to contain outbreaks through partnerships with Ministries of Health (MOHs), external stakeholders, and other governmental institutions. This NOFO prioritizes durable Global Health Security (GHS) programs to keep Americans safer, stronger, and more prosperous by improving public health globally. It applies lessons learned from recent significant public health events, including outbreaks of viral hemorrhagic fevers (VHF), highly pathogenic strains of influenza, and the COVID-19 pandemic. 

As global leaders in strengthening GHS systems, the U.S. government (USG) will use updated frameworks to advance disease detection, notification, and response strategies. This NOFO’s main outcomes are:

• Use time-bound evidence based frameworks, such as the 7-1-7 framework, to detect and respond to outbreaks more quickly for diseases that threaten global health security and the health of Americans at home and abroad. 
• Support regional and country public health institutions to independently lead preparedness efforts and create resilient, durable, and locally owned health systems. 
• Enhance data systems, lab capacity, and local field epidemiology workforce to effectively combat disease threats of international significance.

Program Description
This Request for Applications (RFA) is for the 2026 HFFI Food Access and Retail Expansion Fund (HFFI FARE Fund) Grant and Technical Assistance funding for the predevelopment, planning, and implementation of eligible projects aiming to increase food access, and strengthen, expand, and innovate within the food retail supply chain. For the 2026 funding cycle, at least $5,250,000 is available for planning and implementation Grants and at least $1,000,000 is available for Technical Assistance. 

The HFFI FARE Fund supports innovative fresh Food Retail and Food Enterprise business models that seek to improve consumer access to healthy food in underserved areas through food retail. Funding can be used for project development, renovation, and/or expansion. Funding is designed to be one-time investments of capital into projects creating a food retail or food supply chain enterprise business model in order to address higher costs and initial barriers to entry in underserved rural and urban areas. Planning and implementation Grants should unlock additional sources of capital, catalyze project sustainability, meet financing gaps, and/or enable deeper impact or project reach. Grants are available for both early-stage planning and predevelopment projects and implementation shovel-ready projects that have a site identified and/or established site control, have completed feasibility tasks, and present a reasonable timeline for opening.  Technical Assistance (TA) will be available to support specific contractual soft costs for early-stage planning, predevelopment, and business assistance needs where resources would help build local capacity to develop a Food Retail Outlet or Food Enterprise and would clarify or advance an eligible project.

Executive Summary 
The U.S. Embassy Abu Dhabi, Public Diplomacy Section, announces an open competition to develop and implement the programmatic elements of a three-day Freedom 250 Great American State Fair. The Fair will showcase authentic American heartland culture, creativity, entrepreneurship, entertainment, culinary traditions, and music through immersive public programming designed for UAE audiences. 

Proposals should showcase American excellence, advance American commercial interests, enhance American brand visibility through public engagement, American vendor participation, strategic partnerships, and cultural programming, and strengthen the U.S.-UAE bilateral relationship. 

If selected, the grantee would deliver a comprehensive American State Fair with multiple touchpoints, including but not limited to interactive gaming attractions, themed parades, entertainment showcases, curated exhibitions, family-centric experiences, and an expansive culinary and retail village concept featuring American food brands and artisan vendors, all of which will collectively create an immersive and authentic American state fair experience. 

The selected grantee will be responsible for the design, curation, and implementation of the Freedom 250 Great American State Fair programming and participant experience. The grantee will be expected to coordinate closely with our UAE Local Partner Entity and their contractors, which will provide venue infrastructure and operational support. (Those services are subject to grantee negotiation with the UAE Local Entity and PDS involvement and may include but are not limited to the following: venue construction and dismantling, staging and physical infrastructure, ticketing operations, site setup and cleanup, utilities, waste management, security plans and coordination, public facilities, and other event logistics.) Accordingly, applicants for this Notice of Funding Opportunity should focus their proposals on programming, participant engagement, U.S. vendor recruitment and management, American cultural and commercial activations, and overall authentic event experience rather than venue operations and infrastructure. A detailed division of responsibilities will be provided to successful applicants and may be further refined in coordination with the Public Diplomacy Section and the UAE Local Entity. 

This initiative directly supports U.S. foreign policy objectives and makes America stronger, safer, and more prosperous by advancing American commercial interests, showcasing U.S. excellence and innovation, positioning American businesses and cultural exports at the center of the UAE’s dynamic cultural and entertainment sector as it reemerges from the regional conflict, and strengthening strategic partnerships with the United Arab Emirates. 

As a Freedom 250 initiative, the Fair will celebrate 250 years of American independence and achievement and will showcase the unique culture and traditions of the American heartland. As a condition of award, the selected grantee will be required to sign a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with the UAE Local Entity, the co-host of the Freedom 250 Great American State Fair in Abu Dhabi, immediately after the award is signed with the U.S. Government (PDS UAE). 

The MOU will govern the operational, programmatic, and logistical responsibilities of the grantee in relation to the co-hosted event and will set forth the terms and conditions under which the grantee will collaborate with the UAE Local Entity. The grantee must conduct all activities in accordance with the terms and conditions established, as well as those set forth in the grant agreement with the U.S. Embassy Abu Dhabi's Public Diplomacy Section.
