Cross-checked 5 of 5 key facts

Confirmed Our best read Not stated

Good to know

  • +Delivered with Comic Relief, a major UK funder
  • +An explicit amount range, an exact closing time with timezone, and a published ineligibility list so you can self-screen
  • +Real value beyond the cash: training, mentorship, researcher pairing and amplification across twelve months
  • +Open to non-journalists: muralists, podcasters and data visualizers are all named
  • +Applications run through Submittable with no submission fee

Worth checking yourself

  • !US$4,000 is a ceiling, not the award. Africa No Filter's own amount field reads $0 to $4,000, so a selected storyteller could receive considerably less
  • !Ten named countries only, not the whole continent
  • !Only 15 to 20 places, and only shortlisted candidates are contacted
  • !Reviewed on a rolling basis, so applying early is materially better than applying on 25 September
  • !The published timeline is internally inconsistent: outcomes are dated 6 October, before the applicant interviews dated 9 October

LOT finds and checks opportunities from public sources. Always confirm details on the organiser’s own page before applying.
