The Justice for Journalists Foundation (JFJ) is launching its call for applications for its annual Investigative Grant Programme. Proposals to conduct journalistic investigations into crimes against media workers will be accepted.
Justice for Journalists Foundation is set to help investigate violence and abuse against media workers who have been targeted as a result of their professional duties. The vast majority of attacks against journalists remain unpunished, and there are currently no international mechanisms for pursuing and obtaining justice.
WORTH
- The maximum amount offered for each individual grant is USD 80,000. The grants cover the hard costs of getting to the story and reporting it – airfare, hotels, meals, ground transportation, fixers, translators, as well as the reasonable fee for the justifiable duration of the project.
ELIGIBILITY
- Open to investigative journalists, both professional and non-professional (bloggers, social activists), media organisations, editorial offices, and NGOs, willing to find the perpetrators and facilitators of crimes against media professionals.
DEADLINE: March 20 2022
