In addition to MEPI’s Washington Awards and Education & Exchange programs, MEPI provides a significant number of grants to local organizations working to advance reform within their communities. The local grant projects promote greater freedom and opportunity for people in the region by helping partners carry out their innovative project ideas. These grants are also successful in expanding the role of civil society in identifying local challenges and finding the best solutions to them at the community level.

Local grants usually range from 25,000 to 75,000 USD and last up to one year. Palestinian applicants, including individuals and non-governmental organizations (NGO's), should apply directly to the U.S. Consulate General in Jerusalem. More information on local grant projects is listed below.
