Do you have the story that matters?

By Brigitte Alfter

BRUSSELS - 20/2/2009 - Do you have a good idea for a journalistic story, that really could make a difference? Maybe it could even become a good example for others? Do you need funding for travelling, translations and time to research it? Do you have colleagues in other countries you trust and cooperate with? Then maybe the European Fund for Investigative Journalism can give you a research grant.

Good journalism needs good ideas, competent and committed journalists, supportive editors - and time and money. The latter is something, the European Fund for Investigative Journalism can help with.

In this round we intend to distribute € 20.000, the size of the single grants will depend on the size and quality of the applications. The application must be uploaded on the website by 8 am, March 23rd 2009.

There is full editorial indepence. The selection among applicants will be made according to the rules of the European Fund for Investigative Journalism by a jury of experienced colleagues in the field.

The money comes from seed funding of € 50.000 granted for the development of the European Fund for Investigative Journalism by the Norwegian freedom of speech organisation Fritt Ord.
