Topic: Grants Gov

A shortwave radio clip from the Department of Health and Human Services advises citizens to avoid "labor-saving devices" as part of a $19 million health initiative. The hosts mock the government's "Small Step" tips and transition to discussing the complexity of the grants.gov website, encouraging listeners to find a grant for the podcast.

An exploration of Grants.gov reveals numerous federal funding opportunities for international projects in countries like Liberia, Pakistan, and Nigeria. Many of these grants are managed by USAID, an agency described by some as a tool for "economic hitmen" to advance U.S. foreign policy goals under the guise of humanitarian aid.
