2026 biodiversity media grants at Earth Journalism Network

DEADLINE: MARCH 28, 2026 — Internews’ Earth Journalism Network (EJN) is offering grants to three to four media organisations in low- and middle-income countries to support projects that strengthen media reporting on biodiversity issues.

To increase understanding of the threats to biodiversity, and the solutions needed to address these challenges, biodiversity media grants worth 10,000 to 12,000 EUR each will be awarded for projects that increase the quality and quantity of these stories and build the capacity of journalists to improve their coverage of biodiversity issues.

EJN is especially interested in supporting projects in biodiversity-rich regions of the world, or projects in countries facing unprecedented biodiversity loss.

This opportunity is open to journalist networks, media organisations, civil society organisations or academic institutions.

The deadline for applications is March 28, 2026.
