About this grant
This grant supports the IPS-Inter Press Service in Montevideo, Uruguay, to increase the quality and quantity of journalistic coverage of energy and infrastructure development and finance in Brazil and South America. Over the past grant period, the organization’s coverage was picked up by more than 200 news outlets and a workshop on biogas development attracted participation from 12 journalists from across the region. The current project will continue to examine energy finance and development in South America through stories, photos, videos and a book.
