Documentary Photography Grant Opportunity: SA, UK and other countries
The Soros Foundation has an interesting grant opportunity:
"Traditional media offer limited opportunities for presenting documentary photographs in a way that fosters social change. The Open Society Institute's Documentary Photography Project supports photographers, working in collaboration with a partner organization, to present their work to specific audiences to stimulate positive social change." - Select Research --> Individual etc. on http://www.soros.org/grants
It is available for UK, South Africa and other countries but alas not Brazil where I currently am (otherwise you'd be competing with me for some of those funds).
On a separate note - I previously wrote about the UK Edge UpStarts Awards - They've just announced the winners: http://www.edgeupstarts.org/2007/eu07awardswinners.php
