About UNESCO Excellence in Journalism Education in Africa Initiative 2023
The “Promoting Excellence in Journalism Education in Africa” initiative invites 30+ universities and training centres across the continent to help develop criteria for excellence in journalism education. The initiative is supported by Google News Initiative and coordinated by the Wits Centre for Journalism and the School of Journalism and Media Studies at Rhodes University (South Africa).
Program Details
Through engaging journalism educators, the project is developing a set of criteria for excellence in journalism education that can be used by journalism schools, colleges and NGOs to self-evaluate their education and training programmes.
It includes a small grants component where institutions that self-evaluate according to the final criteria will be invited to propose a project to attend to gaps in their education programmes that they have identified.
Eligibility
- This grants funding opportunity is available to journalism schools, colleges, and universities in Africa
- only one proposal per institution will considered. please confer with your colleagues to ensure that no duplicate proposals are received from your institution.
- institutions that participated in the series of regional online consultation will be prioritized in the selection process.
