Pulitzer Center rainforest reporting supports and builds capacity for quality, independent journalism in three key regions: the Amazon, the Congo Basin, and Southeast Asia.

The new Rainforest Reporting Grant is an evolution of the Rainforest Journalism Fund (RJF), which was launched in 2018.

Through this grant, the Pulitzer Center continues to provide short-term project support to journalists reporting in tropical forests, but seeks more ambitious proposals: larger in scale, and collaborative and innovative in approaches. The initiative will continue to provide resources and capacity to journalists through selective training and networking opportunities with other Pulitzer Center grantees and Fellows.

Journalists can submit applications in five languages (English, French, bahasa Indonesia, Portuguese, and Spanish) and can produce reports in these or other languages.
