For students working with a host organization – proposal deadline Jan 31. Details below. -Mia
In an effort to help develop the next crop of reporters working to keep the world informed, educated, and entertained, Google has created the Google Journalism Fellowship.
The ten-week summer program is designed for undergraduate, graduate, and journalism students interested in using technology to tell stories in new and dynamic ways. The program's focus is on data-driven journalism, online free expression, and rethinking the business of journalism. The fellows will get the opportunity to spend the summer contributing to host organizations working on a variety of subjects, including investigative journalism, press freedom around the world, and journalism's future in a digital landscape.
Host organizations include the Center for Investigative Reporting, the Committee to Protect Journalists, Investigative Reporters & Editors, the Knight Foundation, Pew Research Center's Project for Excellence in Journalism, Poynter, Nieman Journalism Lab, and ProPublica.
