Virtual reporting fellowships available for UN conferences [Worldwide]

Posted on Aug 1, 2024 in Environmental Reporting

Early-career environmental journalists can apply to participate in two virtual fellowships.

Internews’ Earth Journalism Network (EJN) is accepting applications for two separate virtual fellowship programs that will support selected journalists to cover the 29th Conference of the Parties (COP29) to the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) and the 16th Conference of the Parties (COP16) to the Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD). 

For both conferences, selected virtual fellows will receive training, mentorship and other support to facilitate remote reporting on these important events.

Fellows will have the opportunity to engage with their cohort and share knowledge and ideas for effective reporting, as well as partake in sessions with in-person fellows. 

All fellows will also receive a communications stipend of US$100. 

The deadline is Aug. 15.
