IWMF Kari Howard Fund for Narrative Journalism

Kari Howard was a storytelling editor who championed the kind of writing that concerns itself with small moments: Of resiliency, dignity, absurdity, gut-busting humor or heartbreak. She loved writing that captured a sense of place. Howard’s death left a distinct approach to storytelling without one of its most capable champions. To ensure that such journalism lives on, the Kari Howard Fund for Narrative Journalism annually awards grants to support reporting and publication of compelling human stories wherever in the world they are found.

Deadline: July 14, 2024
