The National Science Foundation (NSF) is accepting proposals from media professionals to visit research sites in Greenland and Alaska to report on science supported by NSF's Office of Polar Programs (OPP).
Competitive proposals must include the following:
- A documented ability to reach the widest possible U.S. audience across a variety of platforms (broadcast, print, web and social media).
- A solid field plan that indicates how the outlet will report on science supported by NSF.
Deployment would occur between June and August 2018 for a period of five to 10 working days. Actual dates depend on story planning and logistics discussions.
Application deadline: 5 p.m. EDT April 20, 2018. Media must submit proposals electronically by email or as an email attachment to Peter West at pwest@nsf.gov [1].
