Journalism scholarship in Cambodia in London
Journalism scholarship in Cambodia
London
The Phnom Penh Post, Cambodia's oldest English-language newspaper, is looking for five young journalists for its Leadership in Journalism scholarship programme.
The programme, being launched with the support of the Sasakawa Peace Foundation, will enable outstanding new graduates to spend 12 months working in the newsroom of The Phnom Penh Post under the guidance of experienced editors and reporters.
Scholarship winners will be paired off with Cambodian journalists at the Post, where they will be fully immersed in the dual language newspapers produced by Post Media Ltd. A senior journalism instructor will oversee formal work, while senior staff from The Phnom Penh Post will offer real world newsroom experience.
The project’s unifying goal is to expose the editors of tomorrow to the full rigours of publishing a daily newspaper. The scholarships are designed purely for those who have or are committing themselves to a career in media.
An undergraduate degree in journalism is preferred. Scholarship winners will receive free housing and a small monthly stipend.
The scholarship programme is expected to begin at the end of November.
To apply for a scholarship, applicants should:
Submit a one-page abridged curriculum vitae and cover letter via email to admin@phnompenhpost.com by 5pm on 8 November 2009.
