UNESCO offers grants for climate change reporting [Worldwide]

Posted on Jun 19, 2025 in Environmental Reporting

Not-for-profit investigative journalism organizations, non-governmental organizations (NGOs), research institutes and universities can apply for these grants.

UNESCO, along with the Government of Brazil and the UN, is seeking proposals to strengthen information integrity on climate change.

The call for Partnerships from the Global Initiative on Information Integrity on Climate Change focuses on gathering and producing evidence on how climate change is impacted by information disorders; developing evidence-based communication strategies to counter these threats; and supporting investigative journalism initiatives that expose misleading narratives and promote public understanding.

Not-for-profit organizations, active and registered for at least two years, can submit projects with budgets ranging from US$30,000 to US$150,000.

Applicants can submit their proposals in English, French and Spanish. Applications from low and lower-middle economies are encouraged.

The application deadline is July 6.
