Pulitzer Center Civil Society Micro-Grant 2025: COP30 Call for Proposal (up to $4,000) Deadline: 15 February, 2025
Proposals are invited for the Pulitzer Center Civil Society Micro-Grant 2025. Climate and environmental issues have been at the core of the Pulitzer Center’s work since its founding in 2006. The Center has supported breakthrough journalism that led to real-world impact: engaging and mobilizing communities, prompting demands for change, influencing decisions to halt environmentally destructive practices, and many more.
Since 2022, the Pulitzer Center has actively participated in the UN Conference of the Parties (COP) to join the climate community in addressing the socio-environmental challenges and opportunities of the present. As an important stage for climate and governance conversations that are at the heart of their work, COP is a key place to address relevant issues brought to life in their programs and stimulate collaboration. For this reason, Pulitzer Center is launching an initiative aimed at supporting civil society projects that can feed into the conversations they hope to have at COP 30 in Brazil.
