This informs the public about the TBIJ Bruce Page Fellowship 2023 for Black Journalists in the UK. Details about the Program are given below.
About TBIJ Bruce Page Fellowship 2023
Our inaugural Bruce Page Fellowship has been created in the name of the late Sunday Times investigative reporter and New Statesman editor. Bruce’s desire to do journalism that “names the guilty men” and “points to the defective parts” is an ethos shared by TBIJ.
Program Details
British journalism is 92% white. At TBIJ we are working toward a newsroom that better reflects the diversity of experience and background reflected in the UK and within the countries we report on. Our fellowships are intended for candidates from underrepresented backgrounds and communities. This is in keeping with TBIJ’s efforts to create opportunities and training for people who experience barriers accessing reporting and editorial roles in UK media.
Eligibility
The Bruce Page Fellowship is intended for entry-level or early-career Black journalists who have the right to work in the UK. You do not need a degree or professional training in journalism but should have some complementary experience in research, writing, and/or community engagement.
It will equip you with experience in identifying and pitching ideas, developing and protecting sources, producing community-engaged journalism, fact-checking stories, and structuring and writing articles. There will also be access to other specialist knowledge such as financial reporting, open-source intelligence, and data analysis.
