Malik Ducard, global head of learning, announced the initiative today. Channels like TED-Ed, dedicated to educational Ted Talks, and Hank and John Green=E2=80=99s Crash Course have already secured additional funding, according to YouTube=E2=80=99s blog post. The company plans to invest in co= ntent from independent creators, like the Green brothers, as well as traditional news sources and educational organizations to broaden its content offering. (Disclaimer: Vox Entertainment, a division of Vox Media, The Verge=E2=80=99s parent company, is partnering with YouTube for a YouTube Premium explainer series.) YouTube=E2=80=99s Learning Fund has a nice ring to it, but it isn=E2=80=99t= a philanthropic charity. An FAQ about the program states that =E2=80=9Csucces= sful applicants must enter into a written agreement with YouTube.

Creators like ASAPScience and Smarter Every Day, both of which fall under YouTube=E2=80=99s educational bracket, are working with YouTube on the project. It=E2=80=99s an area that YouTube CEO Susan Wojcicki seems particularly passionate about.
