Benefits
During the program, Fellows work on projects in their home communities with support from Magnum Foundation’s mentors.
Magnum Foundation covers the cost of travel and room and board for the sessions in New York City.
Fellows also receive a modest stipend to support the production of their projects. The program is produced in partnership with the City University of New York Graduate School of Journalism.
The Photography and Social Justice Program is designed to prepare our fellows to be effective and creative leaders in their home communities. Their hope is that the fellows become models and resources for other practitioners and that they cultivate strength and support through their international colleagues.
Through this program, Magnum Foundation trains photographers to use their creative skills to inspire social movements, to witness, to resist oppression, to pose the difficult questions, and to stimulate debate and awareness about critical social issues.
