About the JPC Reporting Fellowship Program
The JPC launched a Reporting Fellowship Program opened to international journalism students in September 2017. The reporting fellowship is a unique program, that provides work experience with leading media outlets in Israel, alongside an extracurricular program to enrich their journalistic experience in Israel
The fellows are chosen by a committee made up of world-renowned, veteran journalists who have been reporting for decades.
Through a detailed enrichment program, developed by JPC, the fellows were exposed to many different aspects of Israel including its diverse society, the security challenges Israel is facing, Palestinian society, Israeli culture and the hi-tech scene.
The Fellowship Program was made possible by a generous grant from the Crown Family Philanthropies.
The program is a 3-month long program.
