Nigeria Media Innovation Program (NAMIP) in USA 2022 (Win $50,000)

The Media Development Investment Fund (MDIF) is accepting proposals for the Nigeria Media Innovation Program (NAMIP) in 2022, which will take place in the United States.

Nigeria Media Innovation Program

Independent media in Nigeria, like in most of the developing world, is beset by unsustainable business models and reliance on grants, while viewers are deprived of a diverse range of trustworthy news and information sources. Many media are unable to establish new income sources and grow audiences that are critical for their future without the ability and financial means to experiment and innovate with business models and new goods. Covid-19 has exacerbated the issue and exacerbated the media’s problems.

NAMIP, which is funded by the MacArthur Foundation, aims to solve these issues by assisting the media in increasing revenues, experimenting with new business models, and instilling financial discipline. It will also assist participating media in forming a strong network of cooperation and partnership.

Worth of Award

  • The winners will get up to $50,000 in funding for their initiative, as well as mentoring and training.
  • They’ll also become part of NAMIP’s supporting network of like-minded organizations and its three-year innovation and capacity-building program.
