The Jerusalem Press Club Climate Innovations Israel Fellowship – 2023-2024
As a journalist covering developments in the field of Climate, we are excited to inform you of the highly anticipated 2024 Climate Journalism Fellowship to Israel organized by the Jerusalem Press Club (JPC).
This weeklong trip in 2024 (dates to be announced) offers a firsthand experience of Israel’s groundbreaking efforts to combat global climate change. It will cover travel, lodging, and a range of media opportunities.
The trip is specifically designed for climate journalists who report on new and proved breakthroughs and solutions to climate changes.
Building upon the success of our inaugural program, the 2023 Climate Innovations Tour in Israel, this immersive experience promises to be an extraordinary opportunity for you to explore innovative climate solutions and contribute to the global conversation on climate change.
During your visit, you will have the opportunity to engage with climate solution innovators and investors, explore their projects, and discuss the challenges and triumphs they face. You will also have the chance to visit Israel’s world-renowned research institutions, and sustainable communities, and witness real-world applications of transformative technologies.
