About this opportunity

EJN, as part of its Following the Money to Combat Environmental Crime initiative, led by the East Africa Wildlife Journalism project, is seeking to award up to $15,000 each to interested media houses in East Africa (Kenya, Uganda, Tanzania, Rwanda, and South Sudan) to expose, using financial tools, money laundering, fraud, bribery, corruption and illicit payments related to nature crimes from trafficking of wildlife and wildlife products such as ivory and rhino horn, hazardous waste disposal, illegal logging and overfishing of protected species, among others.

Rewards

The grant amount of up to $15,000 will depend on the scope of the proposed activities. Generally speaking, applications with smaller budgets will be more competitive, but we will consider larger grant amounts for projects using innovative approaches that may be more resource-intensive and time-consuming.
