[Ngo Climate Change] Earth Journalism Grants Fund for Organizations reporting Climate Change

[Minh, Nguyen Anh]

The Earth Journalism Grants Fund is currently open for applications to support the creation, growth, and capacity of journalism organizations focused on reporting the human dimensions of climate change<http://www.fundsforngos.org/category/environment-2/>.

The Earth Journalism Grants Fund is focused on capacity and network building with flexible spending guidelines that enable local networks to invest in strategic opportunities, build the capacities of their members, and respond to communities' needs.

Projects funded by this grant should have a strong thematic focus on climate change. Particular attention should be given to how climate change affects vulnerable and marginalized communities.

While content production is an important aspect of any project, applications without some form of network- or capacity-building component will not be considered. But if special opportunities arise, we are open to supporting fellowships<http://www.fundsforngos.org/category/fellowships-2/> and travel grants that support specific story ideas or coverage of key events, so long as these projects facilitate the creation of networks and/or are part of a training process.

The Earth Journalism Grants fund is designed to support the establishment of environmental journalism networks in countries where they don't exist, and build their capacity where they do. Applicants should note their affiliations with existing media<http://www.fundsforngos.org/category/media-2/> organizations or provide detailed plans about how this project would facilitate the creation of a new organization.

This grant fund contains $50,000 USD and ideally will be allocated to 5 projects. While the average for each grant is approximately $10,000 USD, we can provide funding over the average for projects that demonstrates a critical need.

The deadline for applications is May 15, 2015.
