Rainforest Journalism Fund

ABOUT THE RAINFOREST JOURNALISM FUND

The Rainforest Journalism Fund (RJF), launched in September 2018, represents a major investment in international environmental and climate reporting. Through the Pulitzer Center, the RJF will support nearly 200 original reporting projects over five years, along with annual regional conferences designed to raise the level of reporting on global tropical rainforest issues like deforestation and climate change—leading to stories that make a difference.

The RJF will support and build capacity for local and regional reporters based in the Amazon Basin, Congo Basin, and Southeast Asia, as well as journalists bringing stories to global audiences. The RJF is supported by the Norwegian International Climate and Forest Initiative (NICFI).
