The Pulitzer Center is opening a new call for rainforest grant applications. We invite journalists, editors, and independent media organizations to submit proposals on Innovative Reporting: Mapping Transparency and Governance on Rainforest Issues.
During this historic election year around the globe, it’s important to take note of how these events may impact the world’s vital rainforests. From the islands of Indonesia to the deep forests in Brazil, there’s a growing need for transparency around the governance of rainforests to combat climate change and protect the life that thrives in the rainforests.
