Small Canadian news organizations are invited to apply.
Applications are now open for the Norman Webster Fellowship Program, launched by the Fondation des Prix Michener (FPM) in partnership with the Fondation Rideau Hall (FRH). This initiative is designed to strengthen small Canadian news organizations by recognizing their vital role in the social fabric, supporting journalistic independence, and fostering diversity in voices and perspectives.
With a total value of US$125,000, the program will support two media organizations—one English-language and one French-language—to produce a groundbreaking story. It also offers early-career journalists an opportunity to develop their skills.
The application deadline is March 21.
