About the Organization

The Global Investigative Journalism Conference is the world’s largest international gathering of investigative journalists. The conference features training on the latest tools and techniques, cutting-edge workshops, and extensive networking and brainstorming sessions. In 2025, the conference will be held for the first time in Asia — in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.

About the Fellowship

With the support of our sponsors and partners, the conference is offering fellowships to journalists from the Global South, and those from historically underrepresented groups to participate in this prestigious event. Competition is keen, so you need to convince us that you will make great use of the training that GIJC25 offers.

Eligibility

• Open to full-time print, online, television, video, radio, documentary, and multimedia journalists, including full-time freelance journalists, in developing or transitioning countries;
• Experience in investigative or data journalism a plus;
• We prioritize journalists from the Global South, and those from historically underrepresented groups. See a full list of eligible countries. If you are unable to cover the cost to attend the conference, and are from a country that is not part of this list, apply anyway and tell us more information at the end of the form under “Additional Notes”.

Fellowship Requirements

Following the conference, fellows are required to either produce a story directly related to #GIJC25 or give a presentation based on the knowledge you gained at #GIJC25 to your colleagues or the journalism community at large. Detailed guidelines and examples here.
