Deadline: January 15, 2025

Applications are open for the Milena Jesenská Fellowship 2025-2026 for Journalists. The Milena Jesenská Fellowship Program, named after the Czech journalist, writer, and translator Milena Jesenská (1896–1944), offers European (including Armenia, Azerbaijan, Georgia, and Turkey) journalists time off from their professional duties in order to pursue in-depth research on a topic of their choice.

Milena Jesenská Fellowships are intended as an award for excellence and are directed towards cultural journalists, with the term cultural being interpreted in a broad sense to encompass a wide variety of intellectual and artistic fields. However, applicants’ work may also be related to one of the IWM’s main research fields.

Benefits

  • During the next fellowship term (September 2025–June 2026), Milena Jesenská Visiting Fellows are invited to spend three months at the IWM in Vienna, Austria. They will receive a stipend of EUR 3,300 per month.
  • In addition, the IWM provides them with an office including access to the internet, administrative and research facilities as well as other services free of charge. Generally, fellowships start on the first day of the month and end on the last day of the month.

Eligibility

  • Open to European Journalists;
  • Applicants must have worked in print, broadcast or online journalism for several years and must have an outstanding professional record.
  • Applications by entry-level journalists or students will be rejected.

Application

Applications must be submitted through the IWM’s online application form; they will be unable to consider applications sent via email.

Application materials consist of the following:

  • a brief letter of motivation that addresses how the project would benefit from time at the IWM, the connection to the IWM’s mission and research, and concrete research/writing goals during the fellowship
  • a project description (max. 550 characters)
  • a project proposal (max. 7,500 characters incl. spaces) containing a) a description of the project’s objectives, b) a discussion of the current state of the art, c) methods, and d) a work plan
  • a curriculum vitae including a list of publications
  • two letters of recommendation are required: At least one from an editor, fellow journalist, or publisher. If applicable, one recommendation letter can also be provided by a scholar familiar with the applicant’s work (Please note that the letters of recommendation need to be submitted directly by your referees within the application period. Your referees will receive an automatic email with a link to a webform after you have submitted your application.)
  • All application materials should be in English.

Important! Attached documents must be combined into a single PDF, as the online submission form only allows for one attachment. File names of attachments must use Latin characters.
