The Knowledge and Freedom Foundation (FOKAL) and its support program for journalism and the media in particular have been subsidizing information actors for many years with the aim of supporting their efforts to produce quality information, balanced and accessible on social issues, a process necessary for democratic construction, launches a call for projects.

This call is open to media (community, commercial and alternative), journalists and associations working in the field of information in Haiti, whether they are located in the metropolitan area or in the provinces. This call favors Haitian actors, as well as projects taking place in Haiti, but encourages partnerships in Haiti and abroad.

The call for projects is open from March 11 to April 11, 2022 for projects to take place within a maximum period of one year following the approval of the grant. This call is addressed to the written and spoken press, television or online and to the audiovisual sector.

Main lines and values that this call for projects aims to promote :
Ethics, reliability, credibility, integrity, accessibility of information, transfer of skills, coherence of the setting up of the project and its objectives, innovation, social justice, tolerance and gender equity. Projects that are built around these values and that demonstrate them will be given priority.

The jury will be particularly attentive to projects that allow the production of sustainable information on themes related to human rights and the dynamics carried by social and popular movements, feminist organizations and peasant organizations across the country will be privileged.

7 to 12 projects for which the request addressed to FOKAL does not exceed 10,000 US dollars will be supported through this call.
