This grant aims to address the shortage of independent journalism by providing grants to investigative journalism projects in Europe and encouraging cross-border collaboration with an expert approach.
This award-winning European Cross-border Grant programme (running since 2009) supports cross-border teams of professional journalists and/or (local or national) news outlets who have strong ideas for cross-border investigations and for research on European topics.
The proposed projects must have substantive news value and depth, while at the same time being original and using innovative investigative methods. The stories must be relevant to European audiences.
Journalismfund Europe supports costs related to journalistic research for types of media formats, which could not be covered without the grant support. This can include travel, translation, access to pay-databases and/or time to pursue the research.
