New international journalism fellowship

The International Center for Journalists and the Media Development Loan Fund are partnering to offer a new international journalism fellowship -- the Knight-MDLF International Journalism Fellowship Program.

The program targets countries with emerging democracies. Fellows must speak the language of the target country. They must have at least 10 years’ news experience, the ability to plan a specific, detailed training project and the time to spend a year making it work.

MDLF will accept detailed proposals from clients by April 30 each year. MDLF and ICFJ will review the proposals to select those that meet the criteria. MDLF and ICFJ will announce the winners by July 31 of each year.
