War Stories, Peace Stories (WSPS), in partnership with
the Pulitzer Center, invites journalists working from any platform to pitch a
project focused on an underreported nonviolent response or peace effort in an
international conflict area.
Three projects will be selected for Pulitzer Center
funding. The level of support will vary between $5,000 and $20,000, based on
travel and related costs associated with each project. All three winners will
present their pitches live to a panel of judges at the War Stories, Peace
Stories Symposium on April 11, 2018, at the Times Center in New York City. One
of the journalists will be selected for an additional $5,000 award.
WSPS seeks pitches that illuminate peace efforts,
nonviolent resistance, and reconciliation in areas of international conflict or
extremism.
Deadline:

winners will be announced on March 20. Winners must be available to travel to
NYC for the event on April 11, 2018.
