Deadline: 6 September 2019
Applicants are invited to apply for “Solutions Visual Journalism Initiative (SVJI)”.
The World Press Photo Foundation and MIAP are beginning an initiative to promote and produce visual journalism with a solutions focus.
Objectives
The Solutions Visual Journalism Initiative (SVJI) has three objectives:
- Develop what a solutions focus means for visual journalism
- Commission, fund, and publish a small number of solutions stories in 2019-2020
- Use these new stories to educate both the profession and engage the public on the benefits of a solutions focus in visual journalism
They are looking to commission, support, and publish a small number of new and original visual stories with a solutions focus. The number of projects to be selected depends on the quality of the proposals. The level of funding for each project depends on the needs and viability of the proposal, but as a guide projects could be supported with a grant of approximately €5,000 each.
