Opportunity Information: Apply for PDS GUA FY25 02

The U.S. Embassy in Guatemala is launching the Academy for Women Entrepreneurs (AWE) to support women's economic empowerment through entrepreneurship. This initiative, part of the White House-led Women’s Global Development and Prosperity (W-GDP) program, aims to help women overcome barriers and increase their participation in the economy. The goal is to reach 50 million women globally by 2025.

A pilot hybrid version of AWE will be implemented in twelve Guatemalan departments, providing training for 420 women to expand and grow their businesses. The program seeks a reliable implementing organization with experience in training and entrepreneurship, ideally with national reach in Guatemala. Both Guatemalan-based and U.S.-based organizations (working with a Guatemalan partner) are eligible.

The program will consist of 14 small-group facilitated sessions using the Spanish-language version of the DreamBuilder platform. The selected implementing partner will oversee development, implementation, and post-training support, as well as customize program components and enrichment activities to fit local needs. The U.S. State Department’s Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs (ECA) will provide training for facilitators.
