Journalists worldwide fluent in English or Spanish can apply for a scholarship program in Mexico.
The School of Authentic Journalism invites 40 scholarship recipients to learn reporting strategies of civil resistance, nonviolence, community organizing and the dynamics by which successful struggles win over public opinion.
Each scholar must write at least one online journalism piece or co-produce at least one video. This work happens in three groups: investigative journalism, online journalism and viral video production. Scholars also have their own faculty advisor to coach them in their work.
All sessions are translated in English or Spanish, but the program is open to everyone of any age, education level, nationality, faith, race, gender, sexual orientation, economic status or political tendency.
The program is tuition-free and training materials are included. Applicants aren't turned away if they can't afford it. Narco News and the International Center on Nonviolent Conflict could cover airfare, food and lodging in some cases.
For applications in English, contact 2012applicationATnarconews.com. For applications in Spanish, contact 2012solicitudATnarconews.com. The application focuses on essays and samples of writing, blogging, webmastering, video or other media work.
The program will be held March 21-31, 2012. The deadline to apply is December 28.
