For two months the Southern African delegates will have the chance to work in Germany. They will be integrated into the day-to-day journalism of their host newsroom while also researching stories for their home media.<\/p>\n<p>It is assumed that all candidates have a strong command of the English language. German language abilities are an advantage but are not mandatory.<\/p>\n<p>The Southern African-German Journalists\u2019 Programme is a multiyear effort to shape an integrated understanding of the other country and regions and to foster relations between Africa and Germany. It has been offered as a response to concerns about an increasing political and cultural detachment between Africa and Europe. The bursary is intended to enable young journalists to gain valuable insights into the political, economic, cultural as well as social fabric of the host country.<\/p>\n<p>The bursary is named in honour of the former Federal President Horst K\u00f6hler and his exemplary dedication to the intensification of German-African relations.<\/p>\n<p>Requirements<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>For all selected IJP fellows the programme starts with an introductory conference. This will allow the participants from Southern Africa to familiarise themselves with the host country. After that they will work for several weeks with media houses before going out to undertake individual research within Germany.<\/li>\n<li>Applicants are asked to submit their preferences for the newspaper, radio or TV station or news agency they would like to work with. The possible location will be chosen by the IJP organisers in dialogue with each delegate. It is expected that former and new participants assist one another with regard to accommodation and contacts.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Benefits<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>The Southern African delegates receive a fixed payment of 3,000 euros. This is expected to cover most of their travel, accommodation and living expenses. No further payments will be made: delegates are expected to use their own funds for any further costs. Payment for their work with the host media is not envisaged.<\/li>\n<li>To receive the full grant participants are obliged to write a report of at least three pages and provide copies of their published journalistic work after returning home.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Application Procedure<\/p>\n<p>All journalists from Southern Africa (SADC Member States and Kenia) between the age of 25 and 40 who regularly work for a media organisation can apply.<\/p>\n<p>1.\u00a0Enclose a CV with a passport photograph.<\/p>\n<p>2.
