Bristol Short Story Prize UK 2019

The Bristol Short Story Prize aims to publish great short stories and promote the stories and writers as much as possible. 
Discovering previously unpublished writers is central to their aims and they are absolutely committed to celebrating the short story genre and making it accessible and available to as wide an audience as they can.

The Bristol Short Story Prize was founded by the editors of the quarterly cultural magazine Bristol Review of Books in 2007.

Aims:
To publish a brilliant short story anthology every year full of fresh and original stories, and to get it stocked in as many bookshops as possible. This includes high street chains, independent shops, and online booksellers.

To inspire and encourage writers.
To discover and promote previously unpublished writers.
To provide an opportunity for writers to get published.
To share the enthusiasm for short stories in as many ways and with as many people as possible.
To establish Bristol as a short story centre.
To raise the profile, support and raise funds for Bristol Review of Books magazine.

They have published a huge range of stories in first 11 anthologies – stories set throughout history from ancient Greece to the present day, and beyond to imagined futures. 
There have been stories narrated by octogenarians, by children not yet a decade old, and others with narrators and protagonists at all stages of life in between. 
Stories written in the first, second and third persons, with the broadest sweep of styles and genres from the familiar to the obscure: historical, romance, literary, science fiction, harsh realism, surreal flights of fancy, tense thrillers, comic capers, ‘experimental’ tales, sparsely written hammer blows of what some might call flash fiction and lots more. 
Stories set in countries all over the globe, written by writers worldwide. There have been high, mid and low brow stories; stories written as blog posts, album reviews, in verse, as diaries, as a series of emails, as well as a sumptuous crop of the more traditional; stories of 4,000 words and those with just a few hundred, one of which won first prize in 2010.

They are inviting to show what’s possible in a short story, what a short story can be, what a story can do and what ‘short story’ means to you.

You’re the writer, it’s up to you what you do. It’s your story. They will read every submission with the same objectivity, respect and relish.

Benefits
Each of the 2019 Bristol Short Story Prize shortlisted authors will receive 2 free copies of the paperback version of Bristol Short Story Prize Anthology Volume 12 and will be able to purchase further copies at a discount of 50%.

All 2019 Bristol Short Story prize shortlisted writers will be able to purchase any number of copies of any volume of Bristol Short Story Prize Anthologies at a discount of 50%.

Prizes for 2019 are: 
1st prize-£1000, 
2nd prize -£500, 
3rd prize -£250. 
Each of the 17 remaining shortlisted writers will receive £100.

The winning story will also be published in the print edition of Bristol 24/7 magazine in November 2019.

 An additional prize of £100, The Sansom Award, in recognition of the contribution to Bristol publishing of John and Angela Sansom, will be presented to the highest placed story by a Bristol writer.

Youth Initiative Fund 2019

UNHCR invites proposals for the Youth Initiative Fund 2019. 
Now its seventh year, the YIF was initiated by the Division of International Protection in Geneva to support community-based protection projects imagined, designed and led by young people. Since 2014, the YIF has supported more than 100 youth-led projects globally that have addressed protection challenges including sexual and gender-based violence, peaceful coexistence, child protection, and psychosocial well-being.

The YIF creates an enabling environment that provides young people with space and support necessary to become active protection actors within their communities and helps them build life skills that strengthen resilience. This is achieved through the realization of three main objectives:

Participation: Young people have genuine opportunities for community participation and opportunities to affect decision-making processes, especially in the area of protection;
Empowerment: Young people learn about project management, use their initiative, evaluate options, learn to make informed decisions and choices, developing and enhancing leadership skills;
Innovation: Young people develop innovative, youth-appropriate protection solutions to addressing personal, group and community challenges.

With the Global Compact on Refugees, States and partners will develop and adopt a new “whole-of-society approach” to working with refugees through the Comprehensive Refugee Response Framework. 

The Youth Initiative Fund has highlighted time and again – through its unique approach of youth-led protection projects – provided with support, training and resources, young people can be creative problem solvers, and are able to design, lead and implement successful projects that benefit, not only themselves but their entire communities.

Location: Online
Benefits
The maximum funding allocation per project is US$ 10,000.

Eligibilities
Projects that have been previously funded may apply but must demonstrate how continued funding will add value to their current project.
Proposals can be submitted in English or French.
Eligible Regions: Open for All.


Applucation Process
There are 2 forms and one log frame to be completed.
The youth group/s should develop the main proposal and a basic log frame, based on the template and guidance provided.
The participating office should then complete the online submission form and attach the forms
completed by young people, as well as a photo of the process and any other supporting
documents.
Countries with multiple operations may submit more than one proposal.
Each project proposal submission should contain a complete set of documents – two forms and a
log frame – one to be submitted by UNHCR online with the proposal and the log frame to be
attached.
