DEADLINE: IWMF Gwen Ifill Mentorship Program

The International Women's Media Foundation (IWMF) is thrilled to launch the fourth year of the Gwen Ifill Mentorship Program. This program is designed to address the lack of diversity in leadership positions across newsrooms in the United States. During the nine-month program, ten US-based fellows will be paired with mentors and have the opportunity to learn from media experts on a wide range of topics. This will be a valuable professional development opportunity for women and nonbinary journalists from underrepresented backgrounds, laying the groundwork for their success and future leadership in the news industry.

Journalists can apply via this Submittable link. Additional qualifications are listed in the application. The deadline to apply is Sunday, October 22, 2023 at 11:59pm EST.
