However, decades of destructive deforestation and extraction of forest resources are having alarming impacts. Reporting on these issues raises public awareness and demands accountability from those with the power to make improvements. The Rainforest Reporting Grant is an evolution of the Rainforest Journalism Fund (RJF), which has supported more than 600 journalists who produced 1,700 reports in the past five years.
These reports capture the various challenges, harmful industries, policy failures, scientific explorations, and inspiring practices of Indigenous communities that are taking place in forests across the three regions.
Here are examples of these inspiring reports: Season II: Rainforest Defenders Forests to Ashes: How Wildfires Are Threatening Venezuela's Megadiverse Protected Areas and Endangering Its Biodiversity Javari, Land of Conflicts and Organized Crime “ Indigenous Women Form an Alliance Against Fire in the Amazon” Protecting Our Natural Environment: A Day in the Life of Eco-Guards in Kahuzi-Biega National Park When Charcoal and Firewood Consume Forests in the Great Lakes Region (Burundi, Rwanda, and Uganda) “ Meet the People Safeguarding the Sacred Forests and Lagoons of West Africa ” When the Forests Fall Silent Hungry People at Merauke Food Estate Rethinking Thailand's 40% Forest Coverage Target: A Road to Sustainable Forest Restoration?

Here is what actually changes and how to respond before the October 19, 2026 deadline.

The transparency gap is now a political liability that is reshaping reporting expectations. Here is what the finding means and how grantees should get ahead of the geospatial-accountability turn.
Read articleThe May 29 OMB rewrite of 2 CFR Part 200 quietly rebuilds the pass-through entity compliance architecture. Proposed §200.332 strengthens subrecipient risk assessment, monitoring documentation, and remediation triggers. A new requirement mandates that every subaward be reported to SAM.gov with the reported records confirmed in performance reports — converting subaward administration from a back-office accounting function into a public-record certification regime. For the universities, state agencies, and national nonprofits that pass through more than half of their federal awards as subawards, the operational implication is a new compliance operating model that needs to be standing up by the October 1 effective date.
