Contribute to economic growth; improve human capacity by creating a better educated and more skillful workforce; and contribute to the development of government and civil society capacity in Trinidad and Tobago, particularly in areas outside of urban centers and other remote and/or disconnected areas while contributing to local and regional stability.
Empower civil societies to strengthen diversity, rule of law, transparency, and rights for vulnerable and marginalized people, including members of the LGBTQI community, victims of gender-based violence, refugees and displaced persons, and persons with disabilities.
Enhance community engagement through sharing positive messages and perspectives that enhance and amplify community-based efforts to address violent extremism.
Demonstrate shared values, which builds respect and trust, and increases effective communication.
Implement trauma-sensitive intervention programs with role models and educators to divert vulnerable youth away from gang and violent extremist influences.
Participants and Audiences: In deciding which projects to support, the Embassy will consider the full range and diversity of Trinidadian, Tobagonian, and U.S. organizations. The Public Affairs Section will also seek to target geographically and demographically diverse audiences throughout both islands.
