The European Research Council has just launched a new science journalism initiative, opening a call for proposals with a view to setting up a funding scheme that would facilitate 3-5-month stays of journalists at research institutions.
The purpose is to give the journalists opportunities to learn and work on in-depth reporting projects by immersing themselves in the research environment and interacting with scientists and scholars. Such opportunities should facilitate better understanding of frontier research, while respecting journalistic independence.
The deadline is on December 15th, 2022.
