Combatting disinformation in communities of color

The John S. and James L. Knight Foundation seeks to fund research projects that will yield actionable insights to mitigate the effects of targeted disinformation in communities of color.

• Course relief to enable research
• Research assistance
• Targeted investigative reporting projects
• Symposia, workshops or other convenings that advance practical, actionable insights
• Data or technology acquisition

Please submit proposals no later than Sept. 15, at 11:59 p.m.
