~*[TheCobc]*~ Fellowships Available for Global Health Reporting

Scholarship and Job are posted at http://cambodiajobs .blogspot. com Travel and Research Awards for Print, Broadcast, and Online Journalists Interested in Reporting on Global Health Issues

Application details are available online. The deadline is Thursday, November 1, 2007.

The Kaiser Family Foundation, through its Media Fellowships Program, is launching a new program for reporting on global health issues. The Kaiser Mini-Fellowships in Global Health Reporting for 2007/2008 will award up to ten mini-fellowships to print, radio, television, and online journalists (including freelancers) to research and report on global health issues, with a particular focus on issues related to HIV/AIDS, TB, and malaria. The purpose is to encourage in-depth reporting on the health, social, economic, political and cultural implications of major public health issues and on the response to these challenges. Awards of up to $10,000 will be given to journalists to cover travel and research expenses relating to a specific project of their choice for publication or broadcast.

This program is for journalists working for English-language news organizations with target audiences in North America and/or Europe. Priority will be given to projects otherwise unlikely to be undertaken or completed, focusing on issues that have not been reported or are under-reported, and which have a high likelihood of being published/aired/posted and of reaching a mass audience. Reporting projects can be local or international in scope, but should focus on public health concerns – or responses – that are of global relevance. Awards will be announced in late 2007.

Applicants should submit a summary of their project; a budget outline and estimated timeframe; a resume; examples of recent work; and letters of support from a supervising editor/news director.

Applicants should review all the application details, including the process and required materials, at http://www.kff.org/mediafellows/minifellows.cfm .

All materials must be received at the address below by Thursday, November 1, 2007.
