The fellowship was created for young cultural journalists from regions in the process of transformation, or those in which freedom of the press is subject to restriction.<\/span>\r\n\r\nThe program is based on a close collaboration of the invited journalists with the Solitude Journal and the Solitude Blog. The funding is designed to help journalists make cultural and sociopolitical debates which are marginalized in their countries of origin accessible to a regional and international public, simultaneously enabling them to hone their skills in the fields of online publishing and during encounters with various forms of digital journalistic production and distribution. On the one hand, the fellowship thus consolidates cultural exchange by supporting these young perspectives, while promoting a journalistic use of new technologies on the other. Since 2020, thanks to the generous support of the Carl Zeiss Foundation, it has been possible to include mentors in the program.<\/span>"},{"acf_fc_layout":"content_txt","bgcolor":"","bgcolor_custom":"","layout_col_size":8,"txt_cols":"is-1-txtcol","txt":"
