Pulitzer Center Persephone Miel Fellowship Program 2020 | $5,000 Travel Grant

2020 Pulitzer Center Persephone Miel Fellowship Program | Get Up to $5,000 Travel Grant: Pulitzer Center Calls for Applications from Journalists, Writers, Photographers, Radio Producers or Filmmakers, Staff Journalists as well as Freelancers and Media Professionals Outside the U.S. for the 2020 Persephone Miel Fellowship Program. Deadline: 10th April, 2020, See Eligibility, Benefits, Selection Criteria, Application Guidelines and Procedure.

The Persephone Miel Fellowship, overseen by the Pulitzer Center and launched in partnership with Internews, is designed to help journalists from the developing world do the kind of reporting they’ve always wanted to do and enable them to bring their work to a broader international audience.

The fellowship benefits those with limited access to other fellowships and those whose work is not routinely disseminated internationally. Miel fellowships involve reporting from within the applicant’s native country—or following migrant communities from there to other locations.

Eligibility.

  • Open to all journalists, writers, photographers, radio producers or filmmakers, staff journalists as well as freelancers and media professionals outside the U.S. who are seeking to report from their home country.
  • Female journalists and journalists from developing countries are strongly encouraged to apply.
  • Applicants must be proficient in English.

Benefits.

  • The Pulitzer Center on Crisis Reporting will provide a travel grant of $5000 for a reporting project on topics and regions of global importance, with an emphasis on issues that have gone unreported or under-reported in the mainstream media.
  • Before beginning the project the Persephone Miel Fellow will come to Washington, D.C., to meet with Pulitzer Center staff and journalists and take part in a 2-day workshop on the pending project and strategies for placement and outreach. The Pulitzer Center will provide $2500 to cover travel expenses associated with the Washington workshop.
  • The Center works with fellowship recipients to distribute their work across multiple platforms in the U.S. to reach the widest possible audience. Projects with multimedia components that combine print, photography and video are strongly encouraged.

Selection Criteria.

Selection will be based on the strength of the proposed topic and the strength of the applicant’s work as demonstrated in their work samples. They are looking for projects that explore systemic issues in the applicant’s native country and that provide an overarching thesis, rather than individual spot-reports from the field.
