Getty Images Grant for Editorial Photography: Community Resilience
Continuing our tradition of supporting in‑depth photojournalism through our Editorial Grants program, Getty Images is offering three grants of $5,000 each to photographers and videographers reporting stories of community resilience in the wake of the Covid‑19 pandemic. Within this theme, judges will be looking for visual journalists to show how communities around the world are recovering from the pandemic’s far‑reaching impact on public health, jobs, education and other aspects of human welfare.
Grant submissions should focus on how individuals, businesses, volunteer organizations and local governments are helping communities recover from ‑ and adapt to ‑ the long‑term disruptive challenges posed by the pandemic.
