Grants

Wits Journalism Africa-China Reporting grants

DEADLINE: ROLLING— Africa-China Reporting Project (ACRP) at Wits Journalism invites journalists to submit proposals for grants.

Proposals should be clearly structured, stating briefly at the outset what the story idea is, followed by how and where the story will be researched and what it aims to reveal or contribute to the Africa-China debate.

Where possible, journalists should identify individuals or communities through which to tell the story.

Grants are generally between $300 and $1,500.

The grants are intended to provide funding for travel, accommodation and sundry daily expenses, but not car hire, purchase of equipment or professional fees, or to buy publication space.
