Description
1) Objective
RfP will support accomplished and talented storytellers from across the world. A variety of content formats, including, but not limited to, Photography, Film and Video, Mapmaking, Data Visualization, Written Word, Spoken Word, etc. will be considered. Projects that dig deeper into the challenges facing specific communities such as last mile households, low-income households, women and girls, and children face in achieving equitable access to freshwater and how these issues are worsening as freshwater scarcity increases are encouraged. Applications are also encouraged for projects that highlight specific solutions to these challenges, and elevate the voices of individuals, organizations and communities at the forefront.
Applicants should show a record of successful media projects and must submit a portfolio as part of their application packet.
2) Eligibility
You must be 18 or older to apply for a National Geographic Society grant.
3) Location
The National Geographic Society specifically encourages applicants from around the world. However, as a result of changes in Chinese law effective January 1, 2017, the National Geographic Society is unable to support new grantee work in mainland China.
4) Budget
Applicants may request between US$20,000 (Level I) to US$100,000 (Level II) per grant. They do, however, encourage storytellers who are early in their careers (5 years or less experience) to apply at the US$20,000 level.
5) Application
They only accept applications that are submitted through the online portal. The deadline for submission of applications is April 22, 2025, at 11:59 PM US-EDT.
