The Pulitzer Center seeks funding ideas from journalists covering tropical rainforests anywhere in the world for widely read major news media sites.

Apply now if you are a journalist covering news for publications situated WITHIN the nations of the Amazon, Congo Basin, or Southeast Asia regions.

The supported international journalism projects will focus on the following themes:

  • Tropical forests’ role in the overall climate equation and weather patterns globally, regionally and locally, and the consequences for human life and living conditions caused by deforestation
  • Deforestation drivers
  • Solutions to halt deforestation

Benefits

  • The Pulitzer Center will provide funding for international travel expenses related to reporting initiatives on tropical rainforests, with a focus on topics that have received little or no coverage in the country’s traditional media.
  • The exact project and careful budget planning will determine the amount of each travel grant. The majority of grants are in the $5,000–$15,000 range, however they can be greater depending on the particulars of the project.
Eligibility
  • Global Audience Rainforest Journalism Fund Grants open to all journalists, writers, photographers, radio producers or filmmakers; staff journalists as well as free-lancers of any nationality are eligible to apply.
  • Applications must be in English.
Application

Include the following in the applications:

  • A 250-word maximum description of the proposed project, including the distribution strategy
  • A rough budget estimate including a cost breakdown at the very least. Please do not include stipends for the applicants; travel funds cover the reporting’s hard costs. Driver, fixer, and translator costs are permitted.
  • Three examples of printed or broadcasted content that has been published
  • three references from the workforce. These could include letters of recommendation or contact details. When letters from interested producers or editors are available, the latter is encouraged.
  • A duplicate of your resume
  • Applications may also include a more thorough project description, however this will only be accepted as an optional addition. The 250-word summary is the most crucial section of the entry.
