EXCITING OPPORTUNITY FOR JOURNALISTS TO STAY IN BERLIN

opportunity 1

Once again Reporters Without Borders (RSF) Germany and taz Panter Foundation invite at least three journalists from countries in crisis or war to stay in Berlin.

Who can apply?
+ Journalists who need a time out from their difficult working conditions. This might be the case after covering stories in an oppressive environment or after covering stories in war or unrest.
+ Journalists who feel the need to lie low awhile and get out of the view of state security because of their journalistic work.

What we offer:
We offer travel expenses, a decent apartment, a monthly stipend of €1000 and free transportation in Berlin for three months. Participants may completely withdraw from public life, use the time for writing or thinking, or they may want to explore political and cultural life in Berlin. Of course, we would be of help in that.

Conditions:
Participants have to be able to communicate in basic English or in German. Participants should have a relevant working-experience as journalists. They must have the firm intention to return to their country after three months.

How to apply:
Please use the application form (https://t1p.de/6uia, Word document) and send the other requested documents to: auszeit@reporter-ohne-grenzen.de. The deadline for applications is 16 June 2019.
SCHOLARSHIP FOR JOURNALISTS FROM COUNTRIES IN CRISIS OR AT WARWe offer to communicate with us via encrypted mail (http://t1p.de/4hdh). The decision will be communicated to the candidates by the end of July at the latest.

Please find all information as well on on RSF Germany’s website: https://ogy.de/1loh

All the best and thanks a lot in advance for spreading the word,
