This year, the EU’s climate policy is at a critical stage: will the bloc’s pioneering Green Deal continue to keep climate action on top of its policy priorities – or will get driven out by European security concerns and an inflation-driven cost of living crisis?
Clean Energy Wire | CLEW is inviting Journalists based in Europe to get insights and background on the decisions that will shape European politics and policies during our study trip to Brussels from 24-26 March 2025. Deadline for applications is 9 February.

Apply now for our latest research tour:
How to shift the trillions? The role of sustainable finance is one of the key questions on the road to climate neutrality. Journalists should play a critical role in this debate. However, many journalists working on environmental and climate topics lack in-depth knowledge of financial market mechanisms. On the other hand, economic and financial journalists often have little background knowledge about the legal and economic foundations and measures of international climate protection.
Clean Energy Wire’s Sustainable Finance Research Tour will help journalists to deepen their knowledge on key aspects of sustainable finance and its impact on the real economy and emissions reduction efforts around the world.
If you would like to take part in this trip to to Germany’s financial capital, Frankfurt am Main, from 6 to 8 September 2023, you can apply till 31 July 2023 here:
