The programme is open to artists of any artform:
- who have received recognition for their work in England
- who do not have extensive international experience
- whose work will benefit from launching better international networks - either artistically or in terms of developing an audience for their work
- who can demonstrate an interest in their work from an overseas partner/host
Individual artists, including creative producers, curators and editors, can apply. Although the Artists' international development programme is aimed at individual artists, small groups of artists who normally collaborate in their work can also apply. This could include, for example, musicians and visual artists who usually create work together, or writers and their translators. If the group does not have a shared bank account, awards to successful applicants would be made to the lead artist named on the application form, but all members of the group would be jointly responsible for the award.

The Fulbright Program is an excellent one. I myself have been on two of these. The first to Kazakhstan in 1994 and where I am writing from and the 2nd in 2006 to Rajasthan an hour south of Jaipur. Both times I was the accompanying spouse. My wife taught in both instances. In India I also gave lectures and focused on my photography of the remote area we worked in.
India is a great place for a Fulbright since they take so many applicants. My wife has served on the applicant screening committee since then. Who wouldn't like a free trip to India?? The Indian government also supports this program.
There are both teaching and research grants as well as working in community service. This program is a win- win program with all involved gaining from the experience.
Many of us can contribute our knowledge and experience to students in India.
At the end of our stay the Fulbright program asked for photographs documenting my wife's work there. I gladly gave them half a dozen photographs.
The next year I found that my photographs had been used in promoting the Fulbright program. Photos of my wife teaching were used in the Fulbright information book,bookmarks, and she was featured on the Fulbright poster which was sent off to colleges and universities across the United States and other places.
Some of my photos can be seen on photo.net

Access Gallery invites submissions for its new Travelling Artist Residency Program, in partnership with Burrard Arts Foundation and with Contraste agence d’art, titled Twenty-Three Days at Sea. Unlike traditional residencies, which offer artists accommodation at a stationary site for a designated period with the aim of producing a new body of work, Twenty-Three Days at Sea is utterly unique: it will offer selected artists passage aboard a cargo ship sailing from Vancouver, Canada to Shanghai, China. Crossing the Pacific Ocean takes approximately twenty-three days, during which time the artist will be considered “in residence” aboard the vessel. The inaugural two residents will be sent to sea in August and September 2015.

Young Explorers Grants (YEG) offer opportunities to individuals ages 18 to 25 to pursue research, conservation, and exploration-related projects consistent with National Geographic's existing grant programs, including: the Committee for Research and Exploration (CRE), the Expeditions Council (EC), and the Conservation Trust (CT). In addition, the YEG program recently teamed with the Luce Foundation to provide increased funding opportunities for fieldwork in 18 Northeast and Southeast Asian countries, including Brunei, Burma/Myanmar, Cambodia, China, East Timor, Hong Kong, Indonesia, Japan, Korea, Laos, Macau, Malaysia, Mongolia, Philippines, Singapore, Taiwan, Thailand, and Vietnam.
Eligibility
The National Geographic Young Explorers Grants Program supports a variety of projects—and an age-range of applicants—that are generally not covered by other sources of funding.
Applicants are not required to have advanced degrees. However, a record of prior experience in the fields of research, conservation, or exploration should be submitted as it pertains to the proposed project.
Funding is not restricted to United States citizens—foreign nationals are invited to apply. Researchers planning work in countries abroad should make great effort to include at least one local collaborator as part of their team.
Where Should I Apply?
The Committee for Research and Exploration funds hypothesis-based scientific research. Consult the CRE website for more information on the fields of research funded.
The Conservation Trust funds innovative and applied approaches to conservation with potential for global application. Consult the CT website for more information on the types of projects funded.
The Expeditions Council funds exploration and adventure around the world. Consult the EC website for more information on the types of programs funded.
Grant Limits
Young Explorers Grants vary in amount depending on significance of the project, though most range between US $2,000 and $5,000 at the maximum. National Geographic Society funds often serve as complementary support—thus the program encourages applicants to seek additional, concurrent funding from other sources.
Grant Restrictions
National Geographic Society grants may not be used for indirect costs, overhead, and other expenses not directly related to the project. Fringe benefits are also excluded, as are salaries.
Funds may not be used for travel to scientific/professional meetings or conferences, tuition, vacations, study abroad programs, volunteer activities, legal actions, land acquisition, endowments, construction of permanent field stations, or publication of research results.
Grant recipients are expected to provide the National Geographic Society with rights of first refusal for popular publication and other media coverage of their findings.
Obtaining an Application Form
Applying for a Young Explorers Grant is a two-step process.
First, you must submit a pre-application form online. If your pre-application is approved, you will be sent an email with a link and a password giving you access to our full application online.

Been a long time!
Emerging Photographer Fund – The EPF grant is designed to support continuation of a photographer’s personal project. This body of work may be of either journalistic mission or purely personal artistic imperatives. The grant awarded is a $10,000 grant. Additionally, a separate “Young EPF Photographer” grant is awarded by FujiFilm to a photographer under 25 (born on January 1st, 1992 or later), consisting of a $5,000 cash prize. If you’re under 25, you’ll be automatically eligible for the Young EPF Award. Both awards are not mutually exclusive, so you could actually win both. The EPF grant was initiated by David Alan Harvey in 2008, and is awarded by the Magnum Cultural Foundation. Funding for the EPF comes from private donors.
Deadline: Sep 15, 2017
Prize: up to $10,000
Entry: $25

Emerging Photographer Fund – The EPF grant is designed to support continuation of a photographer’s personal project. This body of work may be of either journalistic mission or purely personal artistic imperatives. The grant awarded is a $10,000 grant. Additionally, a separate “Young EPF Photographer” grant is awarded by FujiFilm to a photographer under 25 (born on January 1st, 1992 or later), consisting of a $5,000 cash prize. If you’re under 25, you’ll be automatically eligible for the Young EPF Award. Both awards are not mutually exclusive, so you could actually win both. The EPF grant was initiated by David Alan Harvey in 2008, and is awarded by the Magnum Cultural Foundation. Funding for the EPF comes from private donors.
Deadline: Sep 15, 2017
Prize: up to $10,000

Firecracker Photographic Grant Covid-19
"In light of the increasingly difficult circumstances faced by our freelance photographic community, this year’s Firecracker Photographic Grant is specifically tailored to support practitioners during the Covid_19 pandemic. Open to female and non binary photographers, the Grant will be a minimum contribution of £2000 which will be split into 4 individual funds of £500 each. Submissions will be assessed on a combination of quality of work and artist statements outlining proposals for how the grant will be spent. Consideration will be given to both living expenses and production costs. Applications are subject to an application fee of £8 and ALL payments contribute to the funding. The larger the submissions, the larger the grant total and the more photographers we can support. Applications are now open, and will close 1 May 2020. The grant recipients will be announced by 10 May and we will endeavour to make payments at the same time."
