This episode, we dive into the essential fuel that allows cross-border investigative journalism to happen —money.

Beatriz and Tessa first chat with Timothy Large from the International Press Institute who’s responsible for a scheme that gives more than 4m euro in grant funding, about how to nail a pitch application. 

Later, we hear from freelance journalist and recent European Press Prize winner Andrei Popoviciu about the challenges of freelance funding and his tips for fellow journalists.

IJ4EU will open their next funding round on September 2, 2024.
