About the Fellowship

Thank you for your interest in the Fall 2024 Teacher Fellowship, "Making Connections to Global Health Stories!"

From climate change to social justice, Pulitzer Center journalism cuts to the core of the world’s biggest challenges by exploring key issues that connect us all. Over the past four years, the over 100 educators who have participated in our Teacher Fellowship program have extended the impact of Pulitzer Center stories through deep classroom engagement by over 6,500 students  with reporting that deepens their critical understanding of global issues and inspires them to meet global and local challenges with curiosity, empathy, and empowered action.

This fall, Teacher Fellows will explore the following theme:

As part of this paid, virtual Fellowship, a cohort of up to 14 educators will explore global health stories over the course of six workshops in a community with other passionate Fellows, award-winning journalists and the Pulitzer Center education team. They will analyze how news stories engage students in critical analysis of several global health topics, guide students in making local connections,  and explore paths for students to apply their learning to address health issues in their own communities. Ultimately, educators will design a rigorous learning experience that centers at least one news story and culminates in an activity exemplifying empowered action. Participants will share the results of this learning experience by publishing a narrative blog post or a lesson plan that captures student learning, engagement, and empowered action.

Upon successful completion of the program, Fellows will be provided with …

• $600 stipend (made in two payments of $300 disbursed in November 2024 and January 2025)
• Pulitzer Center Teacher Fellow digital badge
• Certificate for 30 professional learning units (PLUs)
