Description
The Pulitzer Center’s Global Reporting Grants are designed to support in-depth, high-impact journalism on critical global issues that are often overlooked in mainstream media. Open to both staff and freelance journalists of all nationalities and backgrounds, these grants encourage ambitious, cross-platform projects that may combine print, photography, audio, and video for one or more news outlets. The Center prioritizes originality, impact, and creative approaches to content distribution and audience engagement. Projects must demonstrate a strong commitment from news outlets, particularly through interactive or multimedia enhancements. The grant is intended as a flexible opportunity for journalists to pursue underreported stories that address global systemic crises, with a focus on raising awareness and driving engagement.
