The Internews Earth Journalism Network (EJN) has created the Biodiversity Media Grant Opportunity to support journalism networks and media organizations throughout the world in increasing the capacity of media to cover critical issues of conservation and biodiversity.
WORTH
- This grant fund contains US$30,000, which we would ideally share among three projects.
- The average grant size would therefore be US$10,000, with potentially a greater share of the total going to projects that demonstrate a critical need.
ELIGIBILITY
- The Biodiversity Media Grant Opportunity is designed to support the awareness- or capacity-building around biodiversity and conservation, network building, content production around these issues, or creating digital or other media outlets. Applicants should note their affiliations with existing media organizations or provide detailed plans about how this project would facilitate the creation of a new network or organization.
- As Internews is strictly a media development organization, please avoid any applications rooted in advocacy or political campaigning.
- Although we will consider applications by NGOs or environmental groups looking to build the capacity of journalists to cover conservation issues, preference will be given to applications from or affiliated with professional journalists, media organizations, journalism schools and the like.
DEADLINE: December 23 2016
