REST of World is accepting applications for the Feature Reporting Fellowship.
The programme helps early-career journalists embark on an ambitious reported feature story about the effects of technology in Latin America, Africa, Asia, South Asia, the Middle East, and Eastern Europe.
Early-career journalists around the world are eligible for the fellowship.
Applicants must have an interest in technology and/or business, and some experience in reporting and writing long-form features.
Interested journalists must submit story proposals that go beyond a typical assignment, requiring extended reporting (possibly across multiple locations), in-depth sourcing, and a significant time commitment.
The selected fellow will be supported and mentored by the Rest of World features team throughout the programme.
The successful applicant will receive a US$7,500 stipend.
The organiser says, ”Since launching two years ago, Rest of World has published stories from over 80 countries. Our stories explore the spaces where tech, business, culture, and human experience collide through compelling storytelling and fresh, innovative design.”
The submission of the application deadline is June 30, 2022. Interested applicants can apply here.
