Florida Humanities
Relevent Country: United States of America
Type of work: Media and Communication for Development
Last Date: 17-08-2022
The Florida Humanities has launched the Broadcasting Hope Media Grant to support the development, production and distribution of radio programs, podcasts, digital resources and documentary films that engage general audiences with important Florida-focused topics through a humanities lens in creative and appealing ways.
The humanities enable them to pursue an understanding of our shared human experience, giving people a sense of grounding and a vehicle through which to gather and discuss modern problems through a historic lens. Humanities inspire, engage, and enrich them. Funded projects must be grounded in humanities scholarship and demonstrate an approach that is thoughtful and balanced. Proposals must also demonstrate the potential to attract a broad general public audience and focus on topics that enhance our understanding of Florida and its culture, people, and history.
The projects should showcase local communities coming together to inspire hope, broaden perspectives, and foster unity.
