African Press Organization (APO)/ -- The Dag Hammarskjöld Fund for
Journalists is now accepting applications from professional journalists
from developing countries for its 2012 fellowship program. The application
deadline is Wednesday, March 30, 2012.


The fellowships are available to radio, television, print and web
journalists, age 25 to 35, from developing countries who are interested in
coming to New York to report on international affairs during the 67th
session of the United Nations General Assembly. The fellowships will begin
in early September and extend to late November and will include the cost of
travel and accommodations in New York, as well as a per diem allowance.


The fellowship program is open to journalists who are native to one of the
developing countries in Africa, Asia, South America and the Caribbean, and
are currently working full-time for a bona fide media organization in a
developing nation. Applicants must demonstrate an interest in and
commitment to international affairs and to conveying a better understanding
of the United Nations to their readers and audiences. They must also have
approval from their media organizations to spend up to two months in New
York to report from the United Nations.


Details with regard to applying for a journalism fellowship can be found on
our web site atwww.unjournalismfellowship.org .


In an effort to rotate recipient countries, the Fund will not consider
journalist applications for 2012 from nations selected in 2011: China,
Ethiopia, India and Nigeria. Journalists from these countries may apply in
2013.


Four journalists are selected each year after a review of all applications.
The journalists who are awarded fellowships are given the incomparable
opportunity to observe international diplomatic deliberations at the United
Nations, to make professional contacts that will serve them for years to
come, to interact with seasoned journalists from around the world, and to
gain a broader perspective and understanding of matters of global concern.
Many past fellows have risen to prominence in their professional and
countries. The program is not intended to provide basic skills training to
journalists, as all participants are media professionals.
