Deadline: October 24, 2024
Applications for the Journalismfund Environmental Investigative Journalism Grant 2024 are now open. This grant programme supports cross-border teams of professional journalists and/or news outlets to conduct investigations into environmental affairs related to Europe.
While news media and newsrooms still predominantly operate nationally, most power structures and societal and environmental problems transcend national boundaries. This grant programme is therefore aimed at cross-border teams of investigative journalists and newsrooms to investigate and document illegal, unreported and unregulated abuse of nature that involves European affairs in and outside Europe.
Next to investigations of environmental issues that transcend borders, this programme can also support and stimulate comparative investigations into local environmental issues and policies between two or more regions or cities.
Award
- The total available amount per call to be distributed among all supported investigations will be around €400,000.
Eligibility
- Cross-border teams of at least two professional journalists and/or news outlets can submit a proposal for a journalistic investigation about an issue that concerns the environment and relates to Europe.
- Only applicants who are legally residing in at least two different countries are permitted to receive funding.

- team members’ details
- information about the intended investigation
- information about the intended publication channels, including letters of intent from news outlets

You will also be asked to upload some administrative documents.
