These initiatives must be structured, sustainable, and designed to foster collaboration across public, private, and civil society actors, with a clear emphasis on actionable outcomes that strengthen democratic norms and responsible technology use. The work is under a subcontract arrangement tied to the U.S. Mission to Argentina under the Department of State, and performance is expected to align with broader diplomatic goals related to governance and digital resilience in the region. Proposals must be submitted by August 20, 2026, following a solicitation posted on July 27, 2026, and are governed under NAICS code 541611, which classifies management consulting services. While specific performance locations are not defined, the initiatives are expected to engage alumni networks connected to U.S. engagement programs in Argentina or the broader Latin American region. The emphasis is on leveraging lived experience and institutional knowledge of alumni to design and lead efforts that transcend traditional boundaries, ensuring long-term impact beyond the life of the contract.
