Newsbreak to fund investigative health reports
Online newsmagazine Newsbreak is offering six fellowships for journalists interested in doing investigative reports on health.
Under the Maggie de Pano Fund for Investigative Reporting for Health, journalists may avail of funding for reports on health. The reports may be on issues such as the misuse of public health funds, policies that affect public health, and any abuse, mismanagement or neglect by any health-oriented individuals and institutions, public and private.
Newsbreak said it will be granting the six fellowships in three cycles. The three cycles will be awarded within one year. Two fellowships will be granted for each cycle.
Deadline for entries for the first cycle is on Sept. 20, Monday, while fellowships will start on Oct. 4. Fellows will get P1,000 daily allowance for 40 days, shouldering of expenses (food, accommodation, and two-way travel for those coming from the provinces) during Newsbreak’s five-day mentoring in the early part of the fellowship, and reimbursement of expenses for out-of-town fieldwork.
Interested applicants must submit the following: an application letter; two sample investigative reports on health; one or more proposals for an investigative health story, with research plan and timetable; and a letter from the applicant’s publisher or editor granting him/her reduced workload for the fellowship’s duration. A freelancer must secure a guarantee from any legitimate media organization that it will publish his/her work.
Requirements may be sent through email. Other inquiries may be sent to the said email, or on Newsbreak’sFacebook page.
The Public Trust Media Group owns Newsbreak. It is funded by international and local individuals and organizations.
