The Middlebury Fellowships in Environmental Journalism
The Middlebury Fellowships in Environmental Journalism each year takes 10 journalists near the start of their careers and helps them work through an ambitious reporting project in print, Web-based, or radio journalism, from the beginning through publication or broadcast. Fellows meet together twice during the year, once in the fall on the Middlebury College campus in Vermont, and once in the spring at the Monterey Institute of International Studies, in California.
At these meetings professional journalists help participants plan their reporting and shape their stories. Fellows each receive $10,000 to help with reporting and living expenses during the fellowship year. We interpret the environment broadly--reporting projects dealing with economics, culture, global issues, and the like should center in some way on the human relationship with the physical world.
Applicants should visit http://www.middlebury.edu/sustainability/fech/fellowships, or write Emily Peterson at fiej@middlebury.edu.
