The MediaFutures support programme is looking for artists and start-ups eager to reshape the media value chain through innovative, inclusive and participatory applications of data and user-generated content.
This open call addresses the challenge of misinformation and disinformation. MediaFutures seeks to support novel, unconventional ways for people to engage with journalism, science and democracy using approaches and tools from the arts, technology and innovation. This years’ challenge invites innovative, creative and impactful ideas which address the issues of online misinformation and disinformation in different domains.
These ideas should help counteract the negative effects of misinformation and disinformation across society and help build trust in scientific and democratic institutions. That could mean developing software or hardware to address specific issues; artworks to highlight various aspects of them; or combinations of both. MediaFutures are particularly keen to receive applications that offer new approaches to include minorities or especially affected countries.
Applications must include details on how these outcomes will be achieved during the six-month MediaFutures support programme (starting in April 2022), and what impact these will have on the issue they address.
Artists, collectives and artistic companies or start-ups can apply. Grant awards v
