The Pulitzer Center is joining Indigenous Photograph for an open photocall to solicit work from Indigenous photographers documenting their experiences with climate change. 

We are particularly interested in those using photography as a storytelling tool to visualize climate issues with a specific focus on journalistic and documentary photography.

Selected images will be featured as part of a projection during the Coal + Ice exhibit, which runs March 15–April 22, 2022, at the REACH at the Kennedy Center. Photographers will receive $300 per image that is selected for the projection.

The Pulitzer Center raises awareness of underreported global issues through direct support for quality journalism across all media platforms and a unique program of education and public outreach. The Center deliberately seeks to support reporting projects, newsrooms, and journalists that reflect the diversity of the audiences we serve. To find our statement on diversity, equity and inclusion, please visit this link.

Indigenous Photograph is an organization working to elevate the work of Indigenous visual journalists and bring balance to the way we tell stories about Indigenous people and spaces.

Applicants may also be considered for future Pulitzer Center grants and projects.

The deadline for submission is February 25th, 2022, 5:00pm EST.
