Asia Journalism Fellowship 2011 open for applications

Accomplished journalists from across the region are being invited to spend
three months in Singapore under the Asia Journalism Fellowship programme at
Nanyang Technological University's Wee Kim Wee School of Communication and
Information.

The programme, supported by Temasek  Foundation and NTU, will run from
7 February through 29 April 2011. Up to 17 Asia-based journalists will be
selected for the fully-funded fellowship.

Fellows will be given the opportunity to pursue their own intellectual
interests away from the usual deadline pressures of their jobs. For their
independent projects, the 2010 Fellows used their three-month sabbatical to
investigate topics as diverse as the role of the media, free trade
agreements, and Singapore's transport policies.

The programme also includes seminars and workshops to sharpen professional
skills and deepen participants' understanding of latest trends and key
issues facing journalism. For the 2011 round, a special seminar is being
planned on the challenges of reporting on ethnic diversity and
inter-religious issues.

Fellows will also be introduced to key newsmakers in Singapore's public
sector, business community and civil society, providing insights into what
makes Singapore tick and its future challenges.

This is the third time the Fellowship is being organised. The 2009 and 2010
Fellows represented print, broadcast and online media, and came from 15
countries and territories.

Details of the programme, including instructions on how to apply, are
available on the web at www.ajf.sg, or by contacting Ms Naowarat Narula at
app2011@ajf.sg. Applications are due by 4th October 2010.
