In 2005, a little over a year after the tragic death of Irish journalist Simon Cumbers, Irish Aid - the Irish Government's programme for overseas development - established the Simon Cumbers Media Fund to honour his memory. The aim of the Fund is to assist and promote more and better quality media coverage of development issues in the Irish media. Two rounds of funding are allocated every year: one
in summer, and one in winter. Further information about the Fund and about how to apply for funding is available at http://www.simoncumbersmediafund.ie. You can also follow us on Twitter: http://www.twitter.com/SimonCumbersMF. FACEBOOK POLICY
