Two fellowships for Indigenous journalists offered

Posted: Monday, January 25, 2021 14:15 Indigenous journalists with between one and 10 years of experience are invited to apply for one of two fellowships offered by The Canadian Journalism Foundation (CJF) and the news department of the public broadcaster, CBC. The CJF was founded in 1990 with a stated goal of promoting, celebrating and facilitating excellence in journalism. The fellowships offer a chance for journalists to explore Indigeous issues while working with CBC’s Indigenous Unit in the western city of Winnipeg. They are given a $4,000 stipend plus an allowance for meals. Travel and accommodation is covered by the CJF. Because of the pandemic, the fellowships may be conducted remotely.
