 Coastal Resilience Media Grants

  • EJN anticipates supporting at least 3 organizations with up to $10,000 each in funding. Generally speaking, applications with smaller budgets will be more competitive, but they will consider larger grant amounts up to $10,000 for projects using innovative approaches that may be more resource-intensive and time-consuming.

Eligibility for Coastal Resilience Media Grants

  • Media organizations, journalist networks, universities and journalism institutions focusing on coastal resilience reporting are welcome to apply.
  • Civil society organizations, community-based groups and research institutes will also be considered – but only those with strong media and communication components that are dedicated to supporting fair and accurate reporting.
  • They are accepting applications from organizations in any country in the world, with a preference for those from coastal countries. Generally, they prefer to support organizations conducting work in the country where they are based but will consider applications from organizations looking to collaborate with groups in coastal countries.
  • For the purposes of this grant opportunity, they will only be accepting applications in English, Spanish and French.
  • Applicants must either have a working understanding of English or have a translator available to assist with communication with Internews staff. However, project activities such as story publication may be completed in any language.
  • Organizations must be legally registered in their country and maintain a bank account with the ability to receive international funds. Organizations in India and Bangladesh (and potentially other countries with similar requirements) must have the appropriate license to receive foreign funding to be eligible. For administrative reasons out of EJN’s control, they are unfortunately unable support organizations in Pakistan.
