Magnum Foundation Photography and Social Justice Fellowship (Fully Funded)

Deadline: January 24, 2017

Magnum Foundation’s Photography and Social Justice Program supports and trains early career and emerging photographers, artists, journalists, scholars, and activists who are passionate about challenging injustice, pursuing social equality, and advancing human rights through photography.

The Photography and Social Justice Program builds capacity and community among a diverse, international network of Fellows who have not had  access to mentorship or training in photography but can demonstrate a commitment to activism and social justice. Using New York City as a cultural resource, the program provides space for interdisciplinary experimentation and cross-cultural, critical discourse at the intersection of photography and social justice.

About the Photography and Social Justice Program

Photography and Social Justice Fellows are selected by mid–February. In April and May, Fellows will attend weekly online meetings. These initial online sessions provide groundwork for the fellowship and a forum for the Fellows to develop their project ideas. The first Laboratory is three week session June 5 – 23, 2017 hosted by CUNY’s Graduate School of Journalism in New York City.

This first laboratory session focuses on project development, discussion, experimentation and includes intensive workshops on critical skill sets such as picture editing, video and audio production, and exploration of new tools and platforms. Between the first and second Laboratories, Fellows will work on their projects in their home communities and attend regular online meetings with Magnum Foundation mentors. The second laboratory will be Jan 3 – 23, 2018. This session will include a final review of the Fellows’ projects and focus on social engagement and creative presentation strategies.

Cost

  • During the laboratories in New York City, the Fellowship covers the cost of travel, room, and board. Fellows also receive a modest stipend to support production of their projects.

Eligibility

  • International Fellows must be from regions outside of the United States and Western Europe where there are few opportunities for training and little access to mentorship in photography;
  • International Fellows should not have had previous formal training in photography at the University level in the United States or Western Europe;
  • Photography and Social Justice Fellows must be fluent in spoken and written English;
  • This year the Photography and Social Justice program will include Fellows from the United States, by invitation only;
  • Priority will be given to applicants from regions and communities where freedom of expression is limited.

Application Timeline

  • January 24th: Applications due;
  • Mid-February: Fellows Selected and notified;
  • April–May: Online Sessions and Project Development;
  • Laboratory 1: three weeks, June 5th–23rd 2017;
  • Laboratory  2: one week, January 3rd –10th 2018
