About this opportunity
Youth Research Vox, a California-based international nonprofit that advances educational equity and global collaboration, is launching its Global Teachers Grant. The idea behind it is simple and warm: money should reach the teachers who help students say something true about where they come from.
The grant supports classroom projects that use English language arts as the medium while putting local culture, heritage and community perspectives at the centre. Projects should encourage cross-cultural critical thinking and help students feel a stronger sense of identity, creativity and belonging. Individual awards go up to 300 US dollars, drawn from a total pool of 10,000 dollars, and the call is open to secondary school English teachers. The provider publishes no country restriction for this grant.
The timeline is clearly marked: applications opened on 15 September 2026, they close on 15 November 2026, and recipients are announced on 15 December 2026. Every funded project must be completed within the school year.
Applying costs nothing. Winners agree to use the funds for the approved project, submit a final report or reflection, and acknowledge the support of Youth Research Vox in project-related communications.
