JOURNALISM FELLOWSHIPS ON OFFER

International Journalists’ Program (IJP) offers fellowships for up to six young journalists from Southern African states to work in a German newsroom and produce stories for media in their home countries. Deadline: January 31.

Eligibility is open to working journalists age 25 to 35 from Angola, Botswana, Democratic Republic of Congo, Lesotho, Madagascar, Malawi, Mauritius, Mozambique, Namibia, South Africa, Swaziland, Tanzania, Zambia and Zimbabwe.

Fellows receive EU€3,000 (about E28,000) to cover travel, lodging and living expenses. Fellows should have a strong command of English; knowledge of German is helpful but not required. Fellows must submit references to their desired media organizations, for which they will work several weeks before embarking on individual research projects.
