SUMMARY:DEADLINE: Pulitzer Center Impact Seed Fund
DESCRIPTION:“We invite university educators and researchers in Africa\, Latin America\, and Southeast Asia to use Pulitzer Center-supported journalism to develop impactful educational initiatives on climate and environmental issues. The Impact Seed Fund (ISF) is a microscale grant to support education and research activities with the aim to enrich the perspectives and knowledge within the university community—specifically students and educators. \n“Central to the program is the intentional use of Pulitzer Center-supported journalism on the climate and the environment as a key resource and reflection in classrooms and beyond. The ISF facilitates a deeper understanding of complex issues by connecting multidisciplinary knowledge\, learning activities\, and field-based reporting. It encourages critical thinking about systemic issues and constructive approaches that address the most pressing challenges facing the ecosystem and the communities who rely on them. \n“The 2026 ISF focuses on ocean\, transparency and governance\, and climate change\, rainforests\, and its interconnection with workers and vulnerable communities. ISF grants range from USD $2\,500 to $4\,000\, varying by region.” \nDeadlines: \n\nAfrica: April 15\, 2026\nLatin America: April 19\, 2026\nSoutheast Asia: May 3\, 2026

SUMMARY:Press Briefing: 2026 Hurricane Season — What You Need to Know Ahead of NOAA’s Outlook
DESCRIPTION:“Join Climate Central and Covering Climate Now for a special webinar aimed at painting a more complete picture of the factors\, both natural and human-caused\, influencing the upcoming Atlantic hurricane season. \n“This upcoming Thursday\, NOAA will issue its first prediction for the 2026 Atlantic hurricane season\, highlighting how a forecasted strong El Niño could impact tropical development this year. However\, this is just one force at play\, with climate change fueling stronger storms. \n“In this press briefing\, meteorologists and reporters from hurricane-prone areas will highlight how to examine climate change’s ‘fingerprint’ on warm ocean waters\, provide expert analysis of what 2025’s hurricanes can tell us about this season’s outlook\, and explore tips for effectively making the climate connection when reporting on the forecast.” \n\nWatch the recording.
