WATCH: Webinar - How to prepare a good proposal by Paula Fray

The Africa China Reporting Project presents:

HOW TO PREPARE A GOOD PROPOSAL: ACRP PUBLIC HEALTH REPORTING GRANT PROPOSALS 2020 REVIEW AND ANALYSIS

With Paula Fray (CEO, Frayintermedia)

Introduction by Bongiwe Tutu (Assistant Project Coordinator, ACRP)

The Africa-China Reporting Project (ACRP) has since 2009 provided reporting grants to journalists. By means of providing facilitation and capacity building for journalists via reporting grants, workshops and other opportunities, the ACRP aims to improve the quality of reporting on Africa-China issues. In March this year the ACRP sent out a call for Public Health Reporting Grant Proposals to uncover stories developing amid the COVID-19 pandemic and the ongoing impact in Africa. With over 300 applications received, the ACRP invited all applicants and other interested journalists to participate in a free online training webinar on How to prepare a good proposal. By using the large body of Public Health Reporting Grant Proposals, this webinar will assist ACRP applicants and all journalists with developing their skills of preparing winning journalism proposals, and will address questions and concerns that journalists have in improving their proposals.
