The grant program will enable explorers to share their findings on Discovery Channel television and digital platforms, in addition to an array of scientific journals highlighting their accomplishments.<\/p>\n<p>Richard Wiese, president of The Explorers Club, said: \u201cThis is the largest and most expansive grant program in the 116-year history of The Explorers Club. The Club\u2019s primary mission is to promote exploration by all possible means, and these grants will allow scientists to share their accomplishments on a worldwide stage in a compelling, educational and inspirational manner. This is particularly important at a time when science is often under siege. This level of commitment by Discovery is a significant game-changer and will help to foster the next Jane Goodall or Buzz Aldrin.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Nancy Daniels, chief brand officer for Discovery and Factual, added: \u201cExploration is in Discovery\u2019s DNA. We are honored to support generations of pioneers as they seek to use their expeditions to better mankind and even make history. This is an opportunity to give viewers a front-row seat to their amazing and inspirational journeys.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Discovery Channel has partnered with the nonprofit The Explorers Club for a $1 million Explorers Club Discovery Expedition Grant program to help advance exploration and scientific discovery.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1033,"featured_media":14478,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"pmpro_default_level":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[69],"tags":[85,4884,4885],"class_list":["post-14477","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","","category-top-stories","tag-discovery-channel","tag-explorers-club-discovery-expedition-grant","tag-the-explorers-club","pmpro-has-access"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.7 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Discovery Channel &amp; The Explorers Club Align for $1M Grant - TVREAL<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/discovery-channel-the-explorers-club-align-for-1m-grant\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Discovery Channel &amp; The Explorers Club Align for $1M Grant - TVREAL\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Discovery Channel has partnered with the nonprofit The Explorers Club for a $1 million Explorers Club Discovery Expedition Grant program to help advance exploration and scientific discovery.\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/discovery-channel-the-explorers-club-align-for-1m-grant\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"TVREAL\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:published_time\" content=\"2020-04-29T15:07:04+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:modified_time\" content=\"2020-04-29T16:39:09+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:image\" content=\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2015\/09\/DISCOVERY-explorer-fund-0420.jpg\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:width\" content=\"1\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:height\" content=\"1\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:type\" content=\"image\/jpeg\" \/>\n<meta name=\"author\" content=\"Chelsea Regan\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:card\" content=\"summary_large_image\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:label1\" content=\"Written by\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data1\" content=\"Chelsea Regan\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:label2\" content=\"Est. reading time\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data2\" content=\"1 minute\" \/>\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\" class=\"yoast-schema-graph\">{\"@context\":\"https:\/\/schema.org\",\"@graph\":[{\"@type\":\"WebPage\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/discovery-channel-the-explorers-club-align-for-1m-grant\/\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/discovery-channel-the-explorers-club-align-for-1m-grant\/\",\"name\":\"Discovery Channel &amp; The Explorers Club Align for $1M Grant - TVREAL\",\"isPartOf\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/#website\"},\"datePublished\":\"2020-04-29T15:07:04+00:00\",\"dateModified\":\"2020-04-29T16:39:09+00:00\",\"author\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/#\/schema\/person\/2a2c6d8fb3c7c8b4220b8877ecffb79a\"},\"breadcrumb\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/discovery-channel-the-explorers-club-align-for-1m-grant\/#breadcrumb\"},\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"ReadAction\",\"target\":[\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/discovery-channel-the-explorers-club-align-for-1m-grant\/\"]}]},{\"@type\":\"BreadcrumbList\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/discovery-channel-the-explorers-club-align-for-1m-grant\/#breadcrumb\",\"itemListElement\":[{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":1,\"name\":\"Home\",\"item\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/\"},{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":2,\"name\":\"Discovery Channel &amp; The Explorers Club Align for $1M Grant\"}]},{\"@type\":\"WebSite\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/#website\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/\",\"name\":\"TVREAL\",\"description\":\"\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"SearchAction\",\"target\":{\"@type\":\"EntryPoint\",\"urlTemplate\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/?s={search_term_string}\"},\"query-input\":\"required name=search_term_string\"}],\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\"},{\"@type\":\"Person\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/#\/schema\/person\/2a2c6d8fb3c7c8b4220b8877ecffb79a\",\"name\":\"Chelsea Regan\",\"description\":\"Chelsea Regan is the managing editor of World Screen.
