Journalists of color based in the United States can apply for a fellowship.
The International Center for Journalists (ICFJ) is accepting applications for its International Reporting Fellowship, which offers minority journalists in the United States the opportunity to play an important role in covering international developments.
Communities of color rarely receive coverage of global issues that directly affect their lives, from the migration of jobs overseas to wars fought by minorities serving in the U.S. military. This program aims to level the playing field, sending well-briefed journalists of color overseas to report on important issues that resonate in their communities.
In 2012, ICFJ selected 10 journalists for the fellowship. They worked in more than 10 countries, including Mexico, Pakistan, China and Brazil, and contributed stories to both their media outlets in the Unites States and to the fellows' Tumblr blog.
This program is sponsored by the Ford Foundation, with additional funding from the Brooks and Joan Fortune Family Foundation, the Scripps Howard Foundation and the Samuel I. Newhouse Foundation.
The application deadline is January 11.
