The Pulitzer Center seeks applications for enterprise and underreported stories about global health inequities and challenges. We’re interested in ambitious projects about systemic barriers to all sorts of care, as well as promising research, treatment advances, or emerging health threats that merit investigation. Crucially, we’re also interested in how massive cuts in U.S. global health aid and other support are unfolding on the ground, globally, and in the U.S. How will health access and efforts to reduce disease and deaths be affected? What about preparation for future pandemics, health threats linked to climate change, war, or other events?
This competitive opportunity is open to text, broadcast, and multimedia newsrooms and freelance journalists in the U.S. and worldwide. Freelancers should seek strong interest and ultimately a commitment to publish from a trusted outlet. We are also open to solid plans for reporting collaborations and publishing by multiple outlets.
Reporting on global health and health science can be expensive, complex, and challenging for staff and freelance journalists. The Center provides a rare opportunity for journalists to apply for support to take on these stories. For example:
