Hale Fellowship

Applications for the 2012 Hale Fellowship are now closed.

PRI’s The World is looking for U.S.-based public radio reporters interested in coming to Boston to spend one week in residence in our newsroom!

Hale Fellows will spend the week working with World staff to produce stories that highlight how international issues have an impact on the United States, or how U.S. issues can have a global impact. Applicants should describe stories they would be interested in pursuing as part of their fellowship.

Following the residency, we hope Hale Fellows will have gained new insight into the kind of global-local connections that can make a U.S. news story a World story.

Fellowship opportunities are open to public radio reporters who are either station-based or freelancers. Three reporters will be chosen from the pool of applicants to complete three separate one-week residencies during March, April, and May of 2012. Applicants should state which month would be preferable. The fellowship covers travel and lodging expenses, as well as a stipend.

The Hale Fellowship program honors former PRI Board Chair Roger Hale and his substantial support for PRI’s The World.
