Ida B. Wells Fellowship accepting candidates [US]

Posted on Feb 24, 2023 in Investigative Journalism

Journalists of color can apply for a fellowship to produce investigative reporting.

Type Media Center organizes the Ida B. Wells Fellowship to promote diversity in journalism by helping to create a pipeline of investigative reporters of color who bring diverse backgrounds, experiences and interests to their work.

The yearlong fellowship provides a US$25,000 award, editorial advice and legal assistance. Fellows will receive funds to cover travel and other reporting costs, and the costs associated with attending the annual Investigative Reporters and Editors conference.

The deadline is March 12.
