The Alicia Patterson Foundation (APF) is seeking entries to its Alicia Patterson Fellowships, which aim to foster and sustain the best traditions of journalism in the United States.
The fellowships support journalists engaged in rigorous, independent and sceptical work that will benefit the public.
Grants are awarded for both one-year and six-month projects. Fellows receive US$40,000 for the full-year stipend and US$20,000 for the six-month fellowship.
An additional fellow specialising in either science or environmental journalism will be selected as a Cissy Patterson fellow, in honour of publisher Cissy Patterson.
Full-time print journalists and photographers can apply for a fellowship.
Non-U.S. citizens are also eligible but must be working full-time for U.S. print publications, either in the United States or abroad.
The application deadline is October 1, 2024.
