Summer Ethical Leadership Fellowship for Journalism Students and Early-Career Journalists

FASPE (Fellowships at Auschwitz for the Study of Professional Ethics) is now accepting applications for its 2027 Journalism program.

FASPE Journalism is a fully-funded, two-week fellowship program in professional ethics and ethical leadership that approaches the study of professional ethics by examining the actions and choices of German and international journalists in covering and enabling Nazi policies. It then draws on this historical example to help Journalism Fellows grasp their responsibility as professionals in their field and strategize ways to confront the ethical issues currently facing practicing journalists and media outlets at large. The program takes place in Germany and Poland at the sites of Nazi history, allowing Fellows to benefit from the power of the place and immersive, contextual learning.

Details:

• Program Dates: Friday, June 18 to Friday, July 2, 2027.
• Fully-funded: All program costs are covered, including travel, lodging, and food.
• Interdisciplinary: FASPE Journalism Fellows travel with and share some seminars with Fellows in the FASPE Medical and Clergy & Religious Leaders programs.
• Itinerary: Fellows will travel to Berlin, Krakow, and Oswiecim (the location of the former Nazi extermination camp of Auschwitz).
  • For last year’s schedule as an example, please see here.

Eligibility Guidelines: FASPE seeks Journalism applicants who fit into one of the following three categories: 1) have some journalistic experience (whether in a college newsroom or otherwise) and are enrolled in a graduate program of any kind and planning to work as a journalist; OR 2) have completed an undergraduate degree and are working as a journalist; OR 3) have completed a graduate degree and are working as a journalist.

Preference will be given to candidates who have journalistic work that has been published or aired by a recognized news organization.
