Travel grants for New Zealand journalists covering stories in Asia


Got a story idea you want to cover in Asia? We're on the lookout for compelling proposals for stories that can help further New Zealanders' knowledge and understanding of Asia. 

Our media travel grants provide New Zealand journalists with funding to travel independently to Asia to research and prepare stories – to help demystify Asia for New Zealand audiences.

The Asia Media Centre welcomes applications for the Asia New Zealand Foundation's media travel grants programme. The next round will close at 5pm on Friday 23 February, 2024.

About the travel grants

The Asia New Zealand Foundation's media travel grants programme was established in 1994. The travel grants offer New Zealand journalists the chance to travel independently to Asia to research and prepare stories. The grants cover most work-related costs, including return economy fares, insurance, visa and airport taxes.
