DIVERSIFY Photo and the Pulitzer Center are inviting applications for the third year of the Eyewitness Photojournalism Grant.
The grant aims to tell visual stories about and by photojournalists from historically underrepresented communities.
The organisers are inviting photojournalists to submit proposals for stories that focus on and explore the systemic and underreported issues in their communities, including but not limited to racial justice, climate change, environmental justice, gender equality, and human rights.
Eyewitness Photojournalism Grant is extended to photojournalists worldwide, with a preference for journalists working within their own local communities.
Grants of $3,000 will be awarded to three applicants to support their visual reporting projects.
As part of this year’s program, recipients will also have the opportunity to be mentored by other visual and photojournalists.
The organiser says that they are seeking news media partners to collaborate with it on the distribution of selected work.
The deadline for the submission of applications is June 30, 2023. Interested applicants can apply here.
