Description
1) Objective
The Pulitzer Center on Crisis Reporting partners with individual journalists and news organizations to support in-depth, high-impact reporting on topics of global importance, including investigations of systemic problems that are often overlooked by mainstream U.S. media. They accept applications to fund reporting projects from freelance and staff journalists as well as assignment editors at news outlets.
Applicants must include in their proposal letters of commitment from news outlets with significant reach to publish or broadcast their work, and they look favorably on applications for reporting that will appear in multiple outlets. There is no deadline for applications; grants are awarded on a rolling basis. They support projects across all media platforms and encourage ambitious, prize-worthy proposals that combine print, photography, audio, and/or video for one or more news outlets. The most successful projects are those in which news outlets match our commitment by adding interactive or multimedia elements to enhance and showcase their original reporting.
2) Eligibility
Grants are open to reporters, photographers, radio/audio journalists, television/video journalists, and documentary filmmakers. They are committed to supporting journalists from diverse backgrounds and of all nationalities.
3) Location
Actions can take place worldwide.
4) Budget
Awards cover reporting costs, and are based on reasonable, detailed budgets. Most awards for international travel are between $5,000 and $10,000, but may be more or less depending on circumstances. They expect news organizations to pay journalists for their work, though in exceptional cases, they may consider stipends to cover a reporter’s time.
5) Application
Applications can be submitted on a rolling basis. The application must be done online.
