About Stiftung Journalistenakademie

Stiftung Journalistenakademie is a German media-education foundation that supports journalism training, media literacy, and public-interest communication grounded in enlightenment, tolerance, and journalistic ethics. Its giving is centered on two recurring prize programs: one honoring human-rights-focused films and another recognizing critical, alternative journalism across print, radio, TV, and online media. The foundation appears to prefer awards, visibility, and field-building partnerships over open-ended grantmaking, with a strong emphasis on German-language work and social-impact storytelling.

Giving Approach
