Description
1) Objective
Journalismfund.eu’s flexible grants programmes enable journalists to produce relevant public interest stories with a European mind-set from international, national, and regional perspectives.
The Media Pluralism Fund will allocate €1,400,000 financial support to local and regional outlets, community media, investigative journalism, and public interest news organisations that operate in “news deserts” or areas experiencing strained media pluralism. The fund will be directly channeled to around 40 eligible local, regions, community, and investigative news media or initiatives.
Do you want to reach an important niche audience or diversify your business model? Innovation is key to staying relevant as a media outlet. Journalismfund Europe and International Media Support announce the launch of an innovative project, “Pluralistic Media for Democracy”. Through strategic support in innovation, business sustainability, and audience engagement, the programme will empower media organisations to continue their critical role in upholding democracy and fostering informed public discourse across Europe.
