These grants are for women and nonbinary journalists reporting on reproductive health, rights, and justice in the Americas. “This initiative funds reporting on issues that impact people’s daily lives in the region, including abortion and contraception access, maternal health, reproductive health policy and abortion bans.” And, “A strong preference will be given to multimedia reporting teams focusing on Argentina, Brazil, and Chile, as well as transnational reporting teams exploring the connections of ultra-right groups and their links to U.S.-based organizations and global networks. This also includes proposals that explore the following themes: 

• Exportation of governance models influencing leaders abroad through deregulation, expanded executive power, and weakened public institutions. 
• Digital media as organizing infrastructure used to build cross-border anti-rights political networks. 
• Gender and reproductive rights as a central battleground for advancing broader authoritarian agendas. 
• Austerity framed as economic reform that disproportionately harms vulnerable communities. 
• Financial and institutional networks coordinating funding, messaging, and political strategies across countries. 
• Crime and migration narratives used to justify expanded surveillance, militarization, and executive authority. 
• Cross-border adaptation of strategies and messaging tailored to local political contexts. 
• Investigative journalism as a key lens for tracing links between funding, institutions, media, and political actors. 
• Democratic institutions under pressure through the erosion of democratic norms, rights, and institutional safeguards. 

Grants will vary depending on the need, scope, and location of the project. Grant funds may be used to cover travel and logistics, security costs, insurance, and other reporting expenses.” Journalists can be employees or freelance, and apply individually or as part of a team.
