Independent European media organizations, as well as staff and freelance journalists residing in the EU and working with these media are encouraged to apply.
Free Press Unlimited (FPU), in the framework of the Collaborative and Investigative Journalism Initiative (CIJI), is inviting applications for funding for cross-border collaborative investigative stories.
Ten grants, each worth EUR10,000, will be awarded to teams of journalists, to produce in-depth, impactful investigative journalism that transcends national borders and addresses critical issues affecting European societies.
Applications from journalists from Ukraine, Belarus or Russia, who are currently legally residing in the EU due to the war in Ukraine or media censorship in Belarus and Russia, are especially welcome.
The deadline to apply is Sept. 9.
