Neon Photo Grants

NEON RESEARCH GRANT FOR YOUNG JOURNALISTS AND PHOTOGRAPHERS 2008

NEON supports journalistic work with a yearly research grant for journalists and photographers
younger than 40 years. In difference to the existing journalists awards that reward finished stories,
the NEON research grant aimes at stories and ideas that have not yet been investigated/written/photographed, and
couldnt be realised without financial aid.

The grant for the five best ideas/stories is 10 000 Euro each.

THE PRIZE
The five best ideas will be funded with 10 000 Euro each. Enough money to pay research costs for a great journalistic story or
research and production costs for a fantastic photographic reportage. The usage of the money has to be verified with receipts.

The benefitting journalists/photographers will have to offer their finished work exclusively to NEON at first.
Publication will be paid additionally according to the usual publication rates. If the result does not lead to a
publication in NEON magazine, the journalist/photographer may offer their story to other medias.

THE JURY
The NEON reserach grant will be awarded by NEON-editors-in-chief Timm Klotzek and Michael Ebert, as well
as NEON-publishers Thomas Osterkorn and Andreas Petzold. They decide by September the 22nd, 2008. The results
