Coda Story is inviting applications from candidates for the Bruno Reporting Fellowship, sponsored by Martin Walker’s Bruno Foundation.
The fellowship is designed to benefit early career journalists working in countries where journalism is under-resourced and the issues pertinent to Coda’s editorial concerns are under-scrutinised.
Fellows will receive mentorship, guidance and editorial support from Coda’s editors and staff. They are expected to contribute ideas and to produce regular reporting, including at least one long-form piece.
The programme offers each fellow a stipend of $1000 a month for 10 months. Pre-approved expenses will be covered separately. Throughout the fellowship, the reporter will benefit from mentorship, guidance and editorial support from Coda’s editors and staff.
Organiser says, ” Our goal is to create an environment where hungry early-career journalists can learn and challenge themselves in a supportive and rigorous environment”.
“The fellows will become a trusted part of our team and newsroom, are expected to contribute ideas, and to produce regular reporting, including at least one long-form piece”.
Applicants can be from any country but must have excellent English and a track record of writing reported pieces in English. This year, the fellowship is open to one Georgian reporter and one reporter of any nationality currently living in exile.
