This fellowship is designed for staff or freelance journalists with a proven track record in covering immigration, politics, social issues, global affairs, or the economy, who are eager to enrich their reporting through deeper insight into migration dynamics. This is a rare chance to step away from the newsroom, immerse yourself in a focused period of learning and exchange, and bring sharper depth and authority to your journalism. During the residency, the fellow will be encouraged to share with researchers their perspectives on journalism practice and effective ways to communicate research with the media. There is no expectation that journalists will produce stories about TMU during or after their residency.
