Are you an experienced journalist with an idea you want to implement? Here’s an exciting opportunity. Apply for a fellowship with GroundUp.
Opportunity Details
The fellowships can be from three to six months (they will negotiate that with successful applicants). If you are currently with another publication and they like your application they are willing to partner with your current employer to co-publish your work - you don't need to resign your job.
They are especially interested in the following themes: prisons and the justice system, some aspects of labour, mining, and climate change. But if you have an exciting pitch on another subject, still apply; they are open to interesting ideas. Also, if your expertise or interest is photography, video or podcasting, you are also welcome to apply.
Apply by emailing your pitch to them. They prefer brevity. Also attach a short CV. If you already work for a publication and want a partnership, please consider including a letter of support from your editor. They aim to take our first fellow on August 1 and then others in subsequent months but the start dates are negotiable.
Send your email to [email protected] with the precise subject line: APPLICATION FOR GROUNDUP FELLOWSHIP The deadline for applications is 1pm on May 31.
