The International Journalists’ Programmes has launched its German-Northern European Programme for journalists from the Nordic and Baltic countries.
The scholarship programme includes a three-day introduction conference in one of the Nordic capitals or Berlin. The participating journalists will begin their stay at their respective host organizations anytime in 2025. These are selected by IJP in consideration of the interests, qualifications and wishes of the individual bursary recipients. Each fellow is also required to attend a final conference at the end of the programme.
Funding Information
- Each fellow will receive a stipend of 3800 Euro to cover a part of travel expenses, accommodation and personal expenses during their stay in Germany.
- The participant must cover any additional costs. Work compensation in Germany is up to the individual host organization and cannot be guaranteed.
Eligibility Criteria
- The application is open to any journalist from the Nordic countries between the ages 18 and 45, working for any print, radio or TV media (employed or freelancer). Fluency in German is not expected or a prerequisite for successful application. At least workable knowledge of English is essential.
Application Requirements
- CV, incl. Photograph
- Letter of recommendation by an editor, supporting the application
- Four written samples of work (TV and radio journalists are asked to send a comprehensive list of contributions.)
- Preferences of host media outlets and of host regions (i.e. Munich) in Germany
