In an age of disinformation, we want to fund researchers and knowledge-producers to create and communicate innovative, engaging, and trustworthy content to reach audiences in Wales (and beyond). The content must be based on existing reliable research and evidence, and contribute to a healthier Wales, healthier people in Wales, and/or a healthier planet. Shortlisted applicants will receive expert training to support career and content development, and successful applicants will form a cohort of trusted voices for Wales.

Applicants can choose the form of communication channel they want to propose, from TikTok to festivals. We want to see targeted projects with a clear vision, a specified audience, and a defined topic. 

Who can apply?

Self-identified researcher(s) or knowledge-producer(s) either based in Wales or based at a Welsh organisation. Team applications are encouraged, especially ones led by grassroots community groups.
