One World Media Fellowship

07.04.2021

One World Media Fellowship is aimed at aspiring journalists and filmmakers who seek to make a career out of reporting on stories from the global south.

One World Media guides filmmakers and journalists on a single project, and provides a supportive network of mentors and peers through the production and completion of their project.

They seek to champion diverse emerging talent, and particularly encourage submissions from underrepresented groups (people of colour, ethnic groups, women, LGBTQ+, or people with disabilities) as well as from people from and based in the global south. 

In 2021, One World Media will select 20 Fellows: 10 spaces for applicants based anywhere in the world, and 10 spaces reserved for applicants from across Africa.

- £1,000 production grant

- Executive Producer for your project
