Grant opportunity: A letter from Paul Salopek
Hi Everyone,
A novelty: For once, I’m not soliciting money to keep long-form immersive journalism alive—instead, I’m helping give money away to do the same.
The National Geographic Society has just launched a big new Out of Eden Walk-inspired journalism grant to reporters and photographers across the globe who are willing to delve deeply into the turbulent age of migration that we live in. Written or visual storytelling proposals that thoughtfully explore the lives of tens of millions of humans now on the move across the Earth are welcomed. The goal: Using narrative to build a more nuanced and humane understanding of often scapegoated migrant communities.
These are hefty storytelling grants with major expected impacts: They range from $30,000 to $70,000.
