Seven Pakistani journalists will be chosen to participate in a one-of-a-kind fellowship themed ‘Good Governance in a Changing World: , Politics, and Society.’
They will take part in eight weeks of intensive lectures, trips, and discussions that will introduce those to key UK academic studies, media, & political figures in the field, as well as meet their peers in some of the UK’s top media organisations and run a symposium on a topic of their selection in the final week. Fellows in the programme are also invited to private meetups and talks.
