Journalists interested in learning more about immigration and migrant integration research can apply for a fellowship.
The Canada Excellence Research Chair in Migration and Integration (CERC Migration) is accepting applications for its CERC Migration and Bridging Divides Journalism Fellowship Program. The program promotes collaboration and knowledge transfer between leading scholars, stakeholders and journalists to strengthen the communication of evidence-based knowledge about migration and integration issues.
The fellowship provides a professional development opportunity for journalists to engage with the latest insights in migration research. During their residency, fellows will conduct their own field research project and connect with an expert team of Canadian and international researchers and local stakeholders.
The one-month residency will be held at the Toronto Metropolitan University for a consecutive period of 20 to 35 days between March 1 and November 30, 2026 (excluding July and August).
Fellows will receive a stipend, including a travel allowance, to contribute to expenses related to their stay for a total value of CAD$5,000.
The deadline is Nov. 1.
