JTA Teen Journalism Fellowship Application Fall 2022

The Jewish Telegraphic Agency is pleased to introduce an international virtual journalism fellowship for high school-age Jewish teenagers. 

We are accepting applications from teenagers (14-18 years old) who are interested in reporting the news of their community through a Jewish lens. We are defining “community” loosely here–school, neighborhood, identity, culture, hobbies. We want to hear how these communities intersect with your Judaism and age-group. 

You provide the story idea and we’ll provide the training and support required to help you produce a 500-750 article or short (90 sec-2 min.) multimedia piece (video, photo, audio).

This is a remote fellowship. Teens are expected to work independently and be on the hunt for the news in their communities and the world around them. We expect fellows to produce three pieces during the course of the fellowship. Teens will be paid for published work.

We are specifically looking to build a diverse fellowship cohort. We encourage teens of all backgrounds, identities, genders, cultures and connections to Judaism to apply. Please click here for full eligibility requirements and schedule.

Email teenjournalism@jta.org with questions.

Can't wait to meet you!
