Counter Histories is an initiative supporting projects that creatively reframe the past to engage with urgent questions of the present and future. For our 2025 Counter Histories Fellowship, Magnum Foundation is calling for proposals from photographers who would like to expand and complete an existing project that responds to this theme and who are excited to contribute to a creative community of fellows. See more here.

There will be a virtual Q&A session about the initiative and the application process on Thursday, September 26, 2024 at 11 AM ET. A recording of the Q&A session will be posted here after the session.
