  3. Journalismfund.eu: Supports journalists working on cross-border stories in Europe, including investigative projects that uncover wrongdoing and abuses of power.
  4. The Investigative Journalism Fund (at The Nation Institute): Offers grants for in-depth reporting on public interest topics, particularly those with national or global significance.
  5. The Alicia Patterson Foundation Fellowship: Provides year-long grants for journalists to pursue investigative reporting projects, particularly those that contribute to a greater understanding of social and political issues.
  6. The IWMF’s Howard G. Buffett Fund for Women Journalists: Offers financial support specifically for women journalists, enabling them to pursue ambitious projects that challenge stereotypes and bring new insights into public debate.

These grants can provide the necessary financial support and resources to help journalists uncover and report on important truths.
