Rainforest Investigations Network Fellowships

"Each year of the initiative, the Pulitzer Center puts out a call for applications to dedicate a whole year to investigating deforestation in the world’s three main tropical rainforest regions. ... The Fellows are assisted by the RIN data and research team to apply innovative investigation techniques, such as the exploration of large amounts of documents and geospatial analysis. And with the support of the Pulitzer Center’s education team, the network will share investigation findings at schools and universities. ... We encourage experienced investigative journalists in each of the tropical rainforest regions as well as journalists based at major global media outlets to apply. The full-time, year-long fellowships will cover the reporter’s salary and provide additional support for the media outlet that employs the journalist (if on staff), or that agrees to host the Fellow (if a freelancer)." Deadline: May 22, 2026.
