Flanders Connects Continents was a project run by Journalismfund.eu in 2016. It provided €120,000 for working grants for Sub-Saharan African journalists collaborating with Flemish colleagues or vice versa.
The money came from the Departement Internationaal Vlaanderen of the Flemish government.
The grant programme allocated a total of €120,000 in grant money to teams of investigative journalists over a period of six months. The project has now ended but journalists interested in similar projects can apply for the Money Trail Grants.
