Deadline: 15 June 2020
In 2020 IJP is offering for the seventeenth time a travel and work fellowship for young journalists from Israel to spend a two-month period in Germany.
The fellowship is part of the Middle East Fellowship of IJP. The fellowships for journalists from Germany and Israel are named in honour of the journalist Ernst Cramer and the former mayor of Jerusalem Teddy Kollek and their exemplary dedication to the intensification of German-Israeli relations.
Objective: The fellowship is intended to enable young journalists to familiarize themselves with the political issues in Germany at an early stage of their career. This will raise awareness of aspects of German-Israeli relations in future multipliers and will give them a personal insight into mentality, culture and everyday life in Germany and the European Union.
Funding Information
- The fellowship carries a single payment of 4,000 Euro per person.
- This sum is intended to cover a large proportion of the travel costs, board and lodging. Fellows are expected to contribute a certain amount themselves. There will be no payment for the individual’s work on location as a journalist.
Eligibility Criteria
Applications may be submitted by any Israeli citizen aged 21 or over who is working as a regular employee, trainee or journalist for Israeli or Arab media. The maximum age is 37 years. Two candidates from Germany will be selected and two from Israel.
