ADDO Fellowships 2025 for Research & Media Organisations in Côte d’Ivoire and Senegal

Deadline: May 15, 2025

Are you a research or media institution based in Côte d’Ivoire or Senegal interested in strengthening the capacities of your journalists in open-source investigations? Apply for the ADDO Fellowships for Research & Media Organisations 2025.

Code for Africa (CfA) is offering eight African Digital Democracy Observatory (ADDO) Institutional Fellowships to strengthen the investigative skills of research and media institutions in Côte d’Ivoire and Senegal. The programme aims to equip researchers and journalists at these organisations with open-source intelligence (OSINT) and social media intelligence (SOCMINT) forensic analysis skills to produce evidence-driven evaluation of information manipulation and interference (IMI) and coordinated inauthentic behaviour (CIB), and to support access to credible information.

Their goals for the fellowships are to:

  • Equip investigative media organisations, research institutes, think tanks, and watchdog civil society organisations with open-source intelligence (OSINT) skills and tools to turbocharge their investigations into information manipulation.
  • Support the selected organisations in establishing in-house teams that produce regular analyses tracking information integrity in their countries.
  • Help the participating organisations reach larger audiences and build deeper engagement with the public for data-driven discussions on key issues.
  • Build a strong pan-African network of OSINT investigators who can collaborate on transnational investigations with peers worldwide to unmask influence operations and information manipulation.

Benefits

The programme will consist of:

  • Grants: Organisations will receive a modest grant to cover eligible activities and costs.
  • Training and mentorship: CfA will offer hands-on technical training, followed by one-on-one project mentorship with support from CfA’s data technologists, editors, and forensic investigators.
  • Publishing investigative content packages: As a result of the training and mentorship, organisations will publish content packages including but not limited to articles, podcasts, videos, and reports on hate speech, misinformation, and propaganda issues in their platforms. 

Eligibility

  • The organisations must be registered in Côte d’Ivoire or Senegal.
  • The organisations must have a minimum of one year of experience, with a strong preference for expertise in analytical research or data journalism.
  • The organisations must provide evidence of reports they have produced and published, with the most recent publication being no older than two months.
  • The organisations must commit to timely and open communication from the management and assigned journalists.
  • The organisations must commit to publishing/disseminating their work on an appropriate public platform. CfA will assist with partnerships/syndications where appropriate.
  • The organisations must commit to agreed-upon online training and mentorship sessions.
  • The assigned journalists must be fluent in either of the languages of tuition and mentorship: English or French.

Application

If your organisation is eligible, apply by Thursday, 15 May 2025, by completing the application form. Institutions with female researchers and investigative journalists are encouraged to apply.
