Investigative Journalism Fellowship

Dr. Ibrahim forwarded us this announcement about a fellowship in investigative journalism fellowship with 50.5o, the section of the independent media platform openDemocracy.net covering women's rights, gender and sexuality. Fellowships will run for three months, and can begin in March or June 2018. Each fellow will be expected to work with editors on 2-3 reports, and to prepare for and attend weekly (virtual) editorial meetings. Fellows will be paid per story – up to £330 ($450) per report. They will also receive ongoing mentorship and practical training. Workshops will be arranged, where possible, on specific topics such as Freedom of Information requests, interview skills, and feature writing, depending on projects and fellows' needs.  For more information, visit https://www.opendemocracy.net/5050/apply-for-5050-feminist-investigative-journalism-fellowship.
