The U.S. Department of State’s Bureau of African Affairs is inviting applications for a grant program titled "Media Smart: Spotting Truth in a Fake News World for Non-Journalists." This initiative aims to train youth, educators, and community leaders in sub-Saharan Africa to combat misinformation and enhance media literacy. The program is designed to empower participants with critical skills needed to recognize and counter disinformation, understand media bias, and engage responsibly in digital citizenship.
The training will consist of online workshops conducted in English and French over six months, featuring expert-led discussions and practical activities. There is a potential for an in-person event based on budget availability. A crucial part of the program is facilitating ongoing peer-to-peer communication among participants after the training concludes.
Eligible applicants include not-for-profit organizations, educational institutions, and individuals with relevant training experience. The grant amount is anticipated to be significant, with a budget of up to $250,000. Applicants are required to demonstrate prior experience in managing large federal grants and must tailor their proposals to suit African audiences while ensuring gender balance among participants, specifically targeting youth aged 18 to 30.
Proposals must address specific goals and objectives aimed at enhancing media literacy, fostering storytelling, and encouraging responsible media communication. Interested parties are reminded to submit their applications by June 15, 2024, following all outlined requirements to ensure eligibility.
