Mongabay Reporting Network seeks story proposals on forest issues

Journalists can apply for a paid reporting initiative.

The Mongabay Reporting Network is a program that provides opportunities for journalists around the world to report on key conservation stories.

The reporting initiative is commissioning stories on the human impact on the forests in Indonesia, Brazil, Colombia, Ecuador, Peru, Guyana, Liberia, Ethiopia, Democratic Republic of the Congo, Republic of the Congo, Tanzania, Myanmar and Vietnam.

Focal topics include the rights and interests of forest-dependent populations, deforestation-free commodity supply chains and green growth, and issues surrounding transparency, governance and legality, and REDD+.

Applications must be in English, and final reporting will be published first in English.
