The fellowship programme, open to journalists aged 35 years or younger from Albania, Bosnia-Herzegovina, Bulgaria, Croatia, Kosovo, Macedonia, Montenegro, Romania and Serbia, provides a unique opportunity to travel and research in-depth articles for a special publication.
The 10 applicants selected will receive a fellowship of 2000 Euros and a travel allowance of up to 2000 Euros, while the programme’s selection committee, composed of local and European journalists and experts, will award one fellow with an individually-tailored opportunity for further professional development, to the value of 8000 euros.

Fellows’ reports will be published at the end of the year in all local languages, English and German.
