Journalismfund Europe : European Cross-border Grants

Author:Zeineb Haj Slimane

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. We do not support fixed costs such as office costs and other investments such as cameras or computers or production costs.

Alongside the applications for funding, teams can also apply to receive support from a project advisor and work with an expert to enrich their investigation.

DEADLINE:

Next deadline:

Thursday 30 July 2026 at 1 pm CET
Thursday 1 October 2026 at 1 pm CET
In 2027, two application deadlines are scheduled: 7 January and 11 March at 1 pm CET.
