Daniel Pearl Investigative Journalism Initiative's Reporting Fellowship Program 2019

Publish Date: Mar 31, 2019

Deadline: Apr 15, 2019

Moment's Daniel Pearl Investigative Journalism Initiative (DPIJI) allows young journalists to do in-depth reporting on anti-Semitism and other deeply ingrained prejudices around the world.

DPIJI Fellowship Application

Open to journalists ages 22–38

Each cycle, Moment—with the help of an advisory board of journalists—selects one DPIJI Fellow, who receives $5,000 ($2,500 upfront and $2,500 upon publication) to produce a story. Fellows work closely with Moment editors and selected mentors to publish their completed project in Moment as well as partner media outlets.
“The DPIJI Fellowship goes above and beyond other similar reporting grants in the partnership with experienced editors—my editing partners helped take my piece from routine to outstanding. The efforts the Moment staff made to publicize my story helped it get one of the biggest audiences of any story of my career, setting me up to get more great work.”
— Eve Fairbanks, DPIJI Fellow
