Description

The U.S. Department of State, Bureau of Democracy, Human Rights, and Labor (DRL) announces an open competition for organizations interested in submitting applications for projects that supports bolstering freedom of expression, safety of journalists, and resilience to disinformation globally. Programs should enable journalists, media practitioners, and social communicators to work as safely and securely as possible, especially in dynamic environments, including those in active conflict and where there is closed or closing civic space, by providing targeted risk mitigation plans to individual journalists and/or media outlets who are under immediate threat or who anticipate future risks due to their work and require specific tools to increase their safety in digital, psychosocial, and/or physical domains. These plans should be provided on a rolling basis to vetted beneficiaries who have undergone previous safety trainings, and co-developed to address the specific risks and needs on a cases-by-case basis, informed by the specific operating environment. The risk mitigation plans should be technical assistance only and will not provide any direct financial assistance to individuals or organizations.
