This is an opportunity for investigative journalism, open for applicants worldwide. This fellowship “provides an unrivalled opportunity for an exceptional early career journalist: a nine-month fellowship with Durham University and Reuters to undertake an investigative project. The Fellow will be mentored by top Reuters editors while having access to Durham’s academics and research resources and will be given the opportunity to develop rigorous, fact-based research and reporting skills. The Fellow will pursue the project from inside a Reuters newsroom  in London, New York, or Toronto with the additional support of colleagues in Durham’s Institute of Advanced Studies. The Fellow will deliver a public seminar at the IAS, sharing their learnings from the Fellowship and supporting the understanding of journalism at the University.” They also say, “Qualified applicants should have between two-and five-years’ professional journalism experience. Where a prospective applicant is not currently a journalist but has worked in an investigative reporting capacity in a related professional field (for example: leading human rights or other socio-political publications and campaigns; working as an author or researcher on authoritative investigative work; or developing in-field photo-or video-research projects, documentaries, or exhibitions) applications may be considered on a case-by-case basis.” They encourage applications from members of groups which are under-represented in journalism. And, “The Fellowship has a monthly salary of c.£4,444 per month … In addition, there is a £1,250 per month living stipend and a one-off payment of £1,800 for travel and related expenses.”
