Applications are open for the Mekong Commons Grants for Writing Workshop 2023. The Mekong Commons writeshop aims to bring together Mekong writers and researchers to think critically, learn how to plan, draft and finish engaging and compelling stories about current environmental and development topics in the Mekong Region.

Those less experienced or early career writers and local community reporters will be given preference. They particularly welcome stories that link the Mekong Common’s themes of ecology, society and development to the topics that bring in perspectives of living with disabilities, HIV/AIDS, COVID-19 and gender. The workshop will take place in February 2023.
