This grant, offered by the National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH) Division of Public Programs, is for supporting innovative media projects that engage public audiences with humanities ideas. Its primary purpose is to foster collaboration between experienced media producers and insightful scholars to develop compelling humanities content suitable for various formats, including documentary film, television, radio, and podcasts. All proposed projects must be firmly grounded in robust humanities scholarship to ensure academic rigor. The program provides awards at two distinct levels: Development, for initial conceptualization and planning, and Production, for the full realization and completion of the media project. This initiative aims to make complex humanities concepts accessible and appealing to a broad public audience.
