DEADLINE: GroundTruth Project's Climate Change Fellowship

The GroundTruth Project is building a robust and diverse editorial team of reporting fellows and editors to lead a multimedia reporting project over the next three years that will track the impact of global warming.

We are seeking applicants for up to five reporting fellowships to join our editorial team in November 2015.

GroundTruth will select journalists from around the world with strengths across different media platforms, including radio, video, photography, data visualization and the written word.

Selected fellows will travel to France to cover the 2015 Paris Climate Conference in December and work with the GroundTruth team to shape an in-depth, multimedia package to be reported over the next three years. During the four-week fellowship, fellows will produce live coverage of the event, develop sources and ideas and receive training and mentorship from veteran correspondents. They also will become eligible for additional climate change reporting opportunities with GroundTruth that will continue through 2018.

The work our team produces will be featured on all WGBH News platforms: Radio, TV and Digital, and offered to our national editorial partners, including PRI’s The World, PBS NewsHour, PBS NOVA, MSNBC and others.

Reporting fellowship applicants can be from any country, but must be early in their careers and show a demonstrated interest in, and unique talent for, covering the environment.

The deadline to submit an application for the fellowship is September 22, 2015. Apply here.
