The fund provides up to US$125,000 per project to support either the completion of production for nonfiction media projects or impact pilot initiatives for completed non-fiction and fiction projects.

The fund seeks stories that challenge traditional narratives and ignite action, reaching audiences through diverse perspectives and genres. It is looking for stories that are created by and about diverse, underrepresented communities and can engage different audiences.

Interested applicants can attend an information webinar on Feb. 26.

Apply by March 10.
