Moldavian independent media and journalists, bloggers and fact-checkers can apply for grants.
The NGO ERIM (Equal Rights and Independent Media) and the media project Cu Sens organize the "Supporting Independent Media and Reliable Information in Moldova" program, funded by the European Union.
This initiative provides grants aimed to enhance the capacity of Moldovan media professionals to produce quality content, counter disinformation and ensure that reliable information reaches the public.
The organizers will provide 10 grants, ranging from EUR2,000 to EUR2,500. Grant money can be used to purchase essential equipment, provide digital security training and implement secure online campaigns.
Applications should be submitted in Romanian, English or Russian. Priority will be given to applicants from outside Chisinau and from rural communities.
For the first selection round, applications should be submitted by Sept. 20; the next deadline is Jan. 15.
