One Europe, Endless Stories

We invite individual journalists and small media organisations to apply for a micro-grant. This micro-grants scheme, available until March 31, 2024, seeks to foster journalistic content creation on pressing topics. The initiative envisions a European media landscape firmly rooted in public values and inclusivity, striving to build a collective platform reflecting the diverse realities shared across the continent. Individuals and small media organizations keen on cross-border collaborations with pan-European relevance are encouraged to apply, with an emphasis on themes of urgency and innovative storytelling.

This micro-grant open call will be opened on a monthly rolling basis. It will support small media organisations and/or individual journalists from at least three European countries to cross-collaborate and produce journalistic content in all possible formats. Granted projects will be encouraged and receive the technical and financial support to make their content available for the search, recommendation and translation functions of displayeurope.eu.

Grantees will receive mentoring support from consortium partner Hostwriter based on their experience with cross-border journalism. Hostwriter will provide bespoke training and mentoring to grantees according to their needs. Teams will receive training in cross-border methodology and mindset as well as optional training in solutions journalism and covering underreported stories. Other topics, such as applying for grants and pitching to international media, can also be covered upon request.
