Join the Debate

Join thousands of journalists worldwide on ICFJ's International Journalists' Network (IJNet). Take part in this week's discussion question, which asks: "Does family or religion ever lead you to self-censor?"

You will need to register and create a profile in order to participate in IJNet discussions. Since we launched a redesigned IJNet site a few months ago, hundreds of you have already created profiles. So far, you are using IJNet to connect with your journalist peers, answer discussions and polls, solicit professional training opportunities, post your own questions and even hunt for jobs.

The Gulf of California Sustainable Development Reporting Fellowship

The International Center for Journalists (ICFJ) offers a fellowship worth up to $5,000 for in-depth reporting on sustainable development in the Gulf of California region.

Reporters for any Mexican news organization may apply, including freelancers who are explicitly sponsored by a news organization that agrees to support the project and distribute their stories.

Applicants will submit a proposal for an in-depth reporting project in the region relating to sustainable development or conservation of biodiversity. Proposals should describe the stories to be produced, how they would be reported, estimated expenses for communications, travel, lodging and professional needs and a timetable for publishing or broadcasting the stories. A panel of journalists will choose the best proposals based mainly on the importance of the stories and the extent of in-depth or investigative reporting needed to carry them out.Learn More
