DEADLINE: Messengers of Biodiversity Reporting Grants

Event Date:

August 31, 2025

In partnership with the Science Media Centre of Canada (SMCC), the Sitka Foundation is offering journalists grants to support the reporting and writing of broadcast or written stories about biodiversity issues in British Columbia. The grants are for stories that will be published across a range of media in Canada, the U.S. and internationally. To receive this grant, the journalist’s proposed work must focus on some aspect of British Columbia’s biodiversity, although journalists receiving this grant do not need to be based in British Columbia or Canada. The funding is designed to be flexible and can be used to help cover research time, travel and other related expenses.

In 2025, there are sixteen grants of $10,000 each available.

Deadline: Aug 31, 2025
