SUMMARY:CIJ Webinar Series: Investigating the Climate Crisis With Results
DESCRIPTION:“This 3-series webinar brings to the fore specific areas needed for journalists and researchers to move from typical reporting of environmental and climate events to investigations that drive impact. \n“Over the last four years\, we’ve learned a lot about how journalism can get results in pushing for climate progress and addressing injustice. Through the Open Climate Reporting Initiative (OCRI) we’ve empowered hundreds of frontline reporters in 58 countries with cutting edge skills for investigative research and compelling stories. \n“Join us to hear more from carefully selected expert speakers who will share their knowledge in biodiversity and ocean reporting\, essential preparation for covering COP\, and methods to connect security\, conflict & climate solutions. This webinar series builds on our January webinar From Skills to Shifts: How Climate Investigations Get Results and you’ll gain a deeper understanding of what it takes to interrogate certain thematic areas towards enabling accountability and action while staying ahead in the discourse.” \n\nSept. 10\, 2026: Focus on Biodiversity & Ocean reporting\nOct. 1\, 2026: Preparing for COP31\nNov. 5\, 2026: Connecting Security\, Conflict & Climate Solutions

SUMMARY:13th Heidelberg Laureate Forum
DESCRIPTION:Travel grants are available for journalists to cover the 13th Heidelberg Laureate Forum. \n“The HLF is an annual networking conference where 200 carefully selected young researchers in mathematics and computer science have the unique chance to meet distinguished scientists in their fields for one week of interdisciplinary academic dialogue. The vibrant atmosphere of the event inspires a blend of scientific discussion and informal interactions among the participants\, setting the HLF apart from traditional conferences. Panel discussions\, lectures and workshops spur scientifically driven debate\, which is then balanced by a variety of social events\, permitting participants to pursue their discourse in an inviting environment. \n“Attending journalists will have the exclusive opportunity to interview renowned laureates from mathematics and computer science\, both in press panels and one-on-one. In addition\, they will be able to engage directly with some of the most promising young researchers from those fields. Journalists are permitted to take part in virtually all of the Forum’s scientific program elements as well as social gatherings in the evenings. Opportunities will also be provided for journalists to network and collaborate with their peers in the press corps. \n“Grants cover travel and visa costs as well as room and board during the stay in Heidelberg. \n“Journalists who do not receive a travel grant or who have missed the travel grant application deadline [of April 8] may nevertheless apply for accreditation to cover the Forum at their own expense” (apply for the latter here; deadline Sept. 9\, 2026).

SUMMARY:How We Talk About Climate Change [Livestream]
DESCRIPTION:This featured panel of the Climate Week NY Roundtable & Panel Series is hosted by the Associated Press and AP Fund for Journalism. \n“How we talk about climate change is arguably the world’s most important story\, yet many readers and viewers tune out. They may see climate change as complicated\, confusing or depressing. But that doesn’t mean they are not interested. How climate change is talked about\, whether in news stories or in conversations with neighbors\, can make a huge difference in getting people interested and even engaged in helping confront the problem. YPCCC Director Dr. Anthony Leiserowitz will join leaders from Project Drawdown\, the Potential Energy Coalition\, the Talking Climate Collaborative\, and the Associated Press for a discussion on how journalists and communicators can shape public engagement with climate change. \n“The panel will be available to the public via livestream on the AP’s YouTube channel.”

SUMMARY:DEADLINE: The Berlin Prize
DESCRIPTION:“The American Academy in Berlin is an independent\, nonprofit institute for advanced study in the arts\, humanities\, social sciences\, law\, journalism\, and public policy. Its primary mission is to strengthen the cultural and intellectual ties between the United States and Germany. Each year\, following a rigorous selection process\, the Academy awards roughly two dozen semester-long fellowships to individuals who demonstrate excellence in their respective fields. The Berlin Prize is a residential fellowship and recipients are expected to be in residence at the American Academy for the semester. \n“The Academy welcomes applications from a broad range of disciplines in the humanities\, social sciences\, law\, journalism\, and various areas of public policy. We also generally encourage projects that address pressing issues of the day\, such as democracy\, security\, technology and society (especially AI)\, energy (including climate)\, and global order. Dedicated fellowships are also available to support projects in Jewish studies\, German studies\, and public health and biotechnology. While project proposals need not focus on topics related to Germany\, candidates should explain how a residency in Berlin would enhance their work. \n“Berlin Prize Fellows receive monthly stipends of $5000\, roundtrip airfare\, accommodation at or near the Hans Arnhold Center\, partial board\, and access to in-house library services and professional networking opportunities.”
