FAIR to award small grants, applications open
FAIR (Forum for African Investigative Reporters) has announced that investigative journalists working for African media and residing in Africa can apply for a small grant under the 2013 'African Investigative Journalism Grants Fund'. Deadline for applications close on 27 February 2013
Supported by the Swedish International Development Cooperation Agency (SIDA), the objective is to strengthen media environments in Africa to act as a watchdog over actions of governments and vested-interested groups.
The grant programme covers 40 small grants of US$ 1 000 each which are meant for expenses only. An advisory committee will extend these grants to deserving journalists who cannot find time and resources to follow up on an important story.
Apply now!
Deadline for applications is Wednesday, 27 February 2013.
