USIP is an independent, nonpartisan institution established and funded by Congress to increase the nation’s capacity to manage international conflict without violence. By supporting events across the country that cover a wide range of peace and conflict mitigation topics, USIP aims to contribute in a significant way to the national conversation on addressing, preventing, and resolving international conflict.

This initiative will provide $2000 each to 250 U.S. institutions and public libraries. Funding may be used for a variety of activities, including educational or training workshops, lectures, speaker programs, library forums or web-based forums. The activity must address issues of international conflict and its resolution and be held during the Fall of 2013. The application deadline is May 3, 2013 and recipients will be announced in July 2013.  For more information or to download the application, please go to www.iie.org/usipsupport or email usipsupport@iie.org
