Early- to mid-career journalists from Latin America working at independent news organizations can apply for this fellowship.
The Douglas Tweedale Fellowship, offered by the International Center for Journalists (ICFJ), helps Latin American journalists improve their digital skills in specialty reporting in areas such as immigration, environment, science and technology, business and personal finance, through a three-week long program in the United States.
The fellowship program will take place October 2 - 22, and begin with a three-day orientation and professional program in Washington. The journalists then will depart for a two-week assignment in the newsroom of a Spanish- or English-language media organization in the United States, where they will conduct reporting in specialty areas or develop the project they proposed when they applied to the program.
At the conclusion of the professional newsroom attachments, the fellows will attend the 69th General Assembly of the Inter American Press Association (IAPA) October 18 - 22 in Denver, Colorado.
Applicants should outline what specialized topical area of reporting they want to strengthen and what technical skills they want to improve. Applicants should also propose a project that they wish to develop during the program.
Participants must demonstrate enough proficiency in English to function and work in an English-language environment, even though they will prepare stories in Spanish.
The deadline to apply is July 1.
