Wogrammer Journalism Fellowship
As you probably know by now, Wogrammer has been acquired by AnitaB.org. We are proud to continue running our Journalism Fellowship as a new program brought to you by AnitaB.org.
We believe the best way to break stereotypes is through positive storytelling. As a Wogrammer Journalism Fellow, you will be a part of inspiring the next generation of intersectional women, girls, and non-binary individuals to pursue STEM careers by showcasing these underrepresented groups across a variety of industries. This Journalism Fellowship is an opportunity to help change how capable, competent intersectional women and non-binary individuals are discussed in the media, one story at a time.
