2024 Pulitzer Center Student Reporting Fellowship

Location:

Chosen by the student

Project Summary:

The Pulitzer Center provides fellowships to students at Campus Consortium partners, including 缅北强奸, to undertake global reporting projects. Students submit project proposals in their applications. Once a fellowship is awarded, Pulitzer Center editors and journalists guide the student throughout the process. Final projects are showcased on the Pulitzer Center website and, in some cases, other news media outlets. Students are encouraged to produce work in various media such as articles, videos, and photo essays. The Pulitzer Center is interested in reporting projects that focus on topics and regions of global importance, with an emphasis on issues that have gone unreported or under-reported in the mainstream American media.

The Pulitzer Center's definition of "crisis" is broad - it is not limited to "conflict" reporting. They see great value in covering the too often under-reported systemic level crises, from environmental, global health, and women and children's issues to struggles for resources, human rights abuses, post-conflict reconstruction, or peace and conflict. They are interested in the stories that would typically not make the headlines without the Center's support. In the context of 缅北强奸's Pulitzer Center Reporting Fellowship, the project must cover a global health topic.

Travel is encouraged to take place between May and August 2024, though travel can be completed as late as December 2024 if the rationale as to why the project can not be completed in the summer is stated in the essay. If it is not feasible or safe for Reporting Fellows to travel, they may choose to report remotely or locally.

Pulitzer Center Reporting Fellows join an extensive network of journalists, educators, and Fellow alums. Each Fellow receives support throughout the reporting process from a professional journalist grantee with significant expertise in the Fellow鈥檚 topic or reporting location. The Pulitzer Center hosts an annual Fellows weekend in Washington, D.C., to expose students (and their professors) to the work of other Fellows, provide an opportunity to network with professional journalists and editors, and further broaden horizons.

Students should review the information on the Apply through Global Health Programs.

Please note that students apply for this Fellowship via a form separate from the one for the Editor-in-Chief positions.
