Opportunity Information: Apply for DOS AF PDPA FY24 02
The U.S. Department of State is inviting applications for a grant aimed at training African journalists on understanding and countering disinformation. This initiative, managed by the Africa Regional Services, focuses on equipping journalists with essential skills to combat misinformation and ensure responsible reporting.
The training will consist of workshops covering a variety of topics, including the identification of misinformation, fact-checking, ethical reporting, and strategies to combat online risks against journalists. The program will be conducted in both French and English over six months, featuring interactions between African journalists and American experts, sharing insights and practices.
Grant proposals can be submitted by organizations or individuals with substantial experience in media training, specifically targeting sub-Saharan African countries, with an emphasis on West Africa. Successful applicants will have a proven track record in managing large grants and must demonstrate their ability to tailor the program to the needs of the African audience.
The goal of this initiative is to enhance the quality of news coverage in Africa by building journalists' capacity to address disinformation effectively. Participants will be expected to produce stories that apply the skills learned during the training.
Projects should be completed within 12 months and include a strategy for follow-up engagement among participants. Eligible applicants must have a Unique Entity Identifier (UEI) and an active registration with SAM.gov. The deadline for proposals is June 15, 2024. Applications will be assessed based on program quality, organizational capability, content relevance, budget justification, monitoring and evaluation plans, and sustainability of impacts beyond the grant period.Apply for DOS AF PDPA FY24 02
