Journalism Science Alliance
Investigative journalism backed by science

The Journalism Science Alliance is designed to support investigative journalism grounded on scientific evidence. Through an ambitious grant funding program, co-funded by Creative Europe, we aim to stimulate the production of local, regional, and transnational investigative journalism co-created by journalists and scientists.

Over the course of two years, the Journalism Science Alliance will fund up to 75 grants for investigative journalism projects that explore the powerful intersection of watchdog journalism and scientific expertise, for generating impactful high-quality journalism that informs and empowers the public.
