Deadline: March 21, 2019

Are you the future of journalism? Apply for the British Council Future News Worldwide 2019. The Future News Worldwide identifies, trains and connects the next generation of global journalists.

The conference offers aspiring young journalists opportunities to develop practical and editorial skills and hear directly from some of the world’s most high-profile industry leaders, with a mixture of talks, interactive panel sessions, workshops and hands-on experiences. After the conference, delegates will be part of a year-round global alumni network, helping them to engage with one another, implement their learning and continue their professional development.
