Eurovision News Young Journalists Exchange Programme

Overview

The Eurovision News Young Journalists Exchange Programme aims to provide hands-on learning and inspiration for those working in Public Service Media newsrooms who are under 30.

Run in partnership with EBU Academy, this is a chance for young journalists to spend a week in the newsroom of another EBU Member to learn how they work and what they do.

We’ve currently reopened our registration window - interested young people can apply and we would like to hear from newsroom leaders who would like their team to benefit from a visiting journalist.

This is not a passive experience; as a young person who’s offered a placement, you’ll be an active part of your host’s news team during your stay, doing as well as learning. Newsrooms benefit from visitors’ experiences, ideas and skillsets.

 What a visiting journalist can expect to learn:

• Different ways of working day to day.
• New systems and tools.
• How common journalistic challenges are being met in another country.
• New ideas and inspirations.

How a host newsroom can benefit:

• New outlooks, experiences and skillsets for the newsroom.
• An opportunity to receive feedback.
• A chance to reflect on how you work.
• New ideas and inspirations.

Important:

If you are selected as one of our visiting young journalists, your organization is responsible for paying for your accommodation, travel and any other expenses. These are not covered by hosting EBU Members. You must have the approval of your line manager before you apply.

There are limited places available for exchanges, so please accept our apologies in advance if you are not immediately selected.
