The fellowships provide annual grants to a total of $30,000 to fund reporting projects in areas including Indigenous affairs, migration policy, human rights and international development.

We encourage applications from journalists who identify as being of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander heritage, as well as journalists from culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds. The program is open to all journalists, photographers and videographers working in news organisations large and small, across all media, as well as freelance journalists and accomplished journalism students.
