BOLD Civic Engagement Workshop

Our partner, the VII Academy, with the support of the US Embassy, is running a year-long program in fact-based writing, photography, and multimedia storytelling, drawing men and women participants from all communities in Bosnia and Herzegovina to encourage and improve civic discourse.

Some of the world’s leading journalists, academics, and public intellectuals from Harvard University, Northeastern University, and VII Photo Agency will provide insight, mentoring, and training to tackle the fraught and complex issues important to the diverse communities living in Bosnia.

The program emphasizes an ethical, collaborative, and participatory approach to journalistic practice and dialogue. VII Academy Sarajevo, in partnership with the US Embassy in Sarajevo, will award several grants in the amount of $30,000 to the best BOLD project proposals in 2020.

To be eligible to apply for these grants, please register to attend the VII Academy BOLD Civic Engagement Workshop.
