About This Grant
The U.S. Department of State's Embassy Kyiv announces an open competition for Ukrainian non-governmental media organizations and independent media outlets to implement a program that strengthens data-driven and AI-enabled journalism in Ukraine. It will build the capacity of journalists and newsrooms to produce high-quality reporting on economic development, reconstruction and investment through training in investigative reporting, data journalism, artificial intelligence, open-source research, cybersecurity, and responsible use of emerging technologies. The program will also aim to support regional and frontline media, where AI and modern digital tools can help offset wartime staffing shortages, strengthen investigative reporting, and improve coverage of local economic development and future recovery efforts. As a result, the program will expand audiences access to independent sources of information. Eligible recipients are Ukrainian registered non-profit media organizations and media outlets working in partnership other relevant stakeholders. By strengthening independent media, expanding the responsible use of U.S.-developed AI technologies and fostering a skilled journalism workforce, the program advances U.S. foreign policy priorities by improving resilience against foreign malign influence, promoting technological innovation, and supporting transparent, accountable journalism that reinforces democratic resilience and contributes to Ukraine's reconstruction, economic transformation, and a transparent, competitive investment environment.
