IWMF’s Kim Wall Memorial Fund 2023

IWMF’s Kim Wall Memorial Fund 2023

Deadline: 15-Dec-22

The International Women’s Media Foundation (IWMF’s) Kim Wall Memorial Fund is offering grants to journalists whose work embodies the spirit of Kim’s reporting.

The International Women’s Media Foundation (IWMF), in partnership with Kim’s family and friends, seek to make sure the kinds of stories Kim loved continue to be told through the Kim Wall Memorial Fund.

The grant will fund women or non-binary reporters covering subculture, broadly defined, and what Kim liked to call “the undercurrents of rebellion.” Kim wanted more women to be out in the world, brushing up against life, and the Kim Wall Memorial Fund honors this legacy.

Kim reported from all over the world in her short but accomplished career as an international correspondent. Her reporting appeared in publications including Harper’s, The New York Times, Foreign Policy, The Atlantic, TIME, Slate, Vice and Guardian. Kim was an IWMF fellow and grantee, and received support from the organization in 2016 to report from Uganda and Sri Lanka.
