About Opportunity
Mongabay’s Y. Eva Tan Conservation Reporting Fellowship Program provides opportunities for journalists from biodiversity hotspots in tropical countries to report on critical environmental issues, gaining valuable training, experience, and credibility that will help them advance their careers in journalism and communications.
What you will do:
As a fellow of the Y. Eva Tan Conservation Reporting Fellowship Program, you will be one of 18 annual fellows, six of whom will work at our global English news bureau, six at our Spanish-language news bureau with Mongabay-Latam, and six at our French-language news bureau with Mongabay-Africa. Each cohort will consist of three fellows per bureau during the six-month fellowship.
Fellows will work directly with the fellowship editor to produce six stories. Fellows will have opportunities to collaborate with multiple editors at Mongabay’s international news outlet, including those who specialize in different areas to develop environmental reporting skills, and create a portfolio of original publications.
Fellows are expected to engage with Mongabay for at least 10 hours a week and produce an average of one story per month over the course of the fellowship.
Each fellow will receive $500 USD a month for the duration of the six-month fellowship.
