Journalismfund Europe is accepting applicants for the European Cross-Border Grants.

The European Cross-Border Grants and mentoring programme aims to address the shortage of independent journalism by providing grants to investigative journalism projects in Europe and encouraging cross-border collaboration.

Since 2009, this awarded grant programme has supported professional journalists who have good ideas for cross-border investigations and for research on European topics. The stories must be relevant to European target groups.

Cross-border teams of professional journalists can apply for a grant to cover working time and/or expenses for their investigation.

Next to a grant, teams can also apply for a mentor to provide assistance with either the focus of the investigation or the need for competencies in a specific skill.
