HORIZON INTERNATIONAL SOLUTIONS SITE

Internews Network invites non-govermental organisations and individuals working in media development in the Middle East and North Africa to apply for grants from the Open Media Fund.

Grants are available for innovative projects that foster more open and diverse news media in the region. Internews looks for initiatives  that help train professionals or students and monitor media in the region. Projects that boost the participation of women and young people in media are also welcomed.

The grants range from US$5,000 to $20,000 and are made possible  through a seed grant from the U.S. State Department. Internews also seeks additional donations to contribute to the fund.

Applicants should submit proposals to Nadia Alami, Internews regional director for the Middle East and North Africa (nalami@internews.org) and to Dareen Al Omari, Middle East Open Media Fund grant administrator (dareen.alomari@internews.org).
