Dear readers,सबै पत्रकार्हरुलाई

There's no doubt that Journalism is a dangerous business and Daniel Pearl was one of those writers who 'died in action' in पाकिस्तान. This page is dedicated to him। In this write-up you'll also find fellowships for newcomers in the field of citizen journalism and other sectors for would-be journalists. Do scroll around and you might perhaps find something of interest for you.
Regards,
Satis Shroff

I dedicate this blog to Daniel Pearl, an Amercian journalist killed in Pakistan. As a Daniel Pearl Fellow and AFPF fellow myself, I'll share my skills and experience of reporting and writing on these pages. Some reporting about the public interest issues would also be part of this blog.

Reuters' workshop on writing international news
Posted by SS at 3:49 PM
The Reuters Foundation is offering a course on international news writing for journalists from the developing world in London from August 11 to 22. Last day to apply: June 27. The course will focus on the writing of international news, as practiced by Reuters and other global news organizations. Through practice exercises, emphasis will be placed on improving basic reporting skills including accuracy, impartiality, speed, clarity and structure. Scholarships are available for journalists from the developing world with limited recourses. Partial scholarships are also offered to journalists who can afford to pay for their costs through their organizations. Regular tuition fees are UK£2000 (US$3,905) for travel and accommodations for 10 days. Those interested should have fluency in English and have worked for print or other media organizations for at least two years. Interested persons must submit a 250-word essay outlining their career, two recent examples of their work in English, and a statement of 250-500 words describing why this workshop would benefit them.
