We are delighted to announce that applications are now open for our flagship Women in News Leadership Accelerator Programme, with the deadline on 14 January 2022. This is an intensive nine-month long career and leadership programme open to women journalists and editors working in Africa.
Journalists and editors who take part in the programme acquire new skill sets and build their capacity through a combination of Coaching, Training, Mentoring and Networking.
Specifically, successful applicants benefit from:
- One-on-one coaching to create a three-to-five year career roadmap
- Certified Media Management Training
- Gender Balance in Content Training
- Managing Sexual Harassment Training
- Leadership Hubs
ELIGIBILITY:
Applications are open for mid to senior level editors and journalists from Botswana, Kenya, Malawi, Rwanda, Somalia, South Sudan, Tanzania, Uganda, Zambia and Zimbabwe.
The WIN Leadership Accelerator is targeted at mid to senior level editors and journalists. Participants must have two to three years of experience managing people or processes and be working in the media sector – print or digital newspapers, radio and, in some cases, broadcast.
We recognise that gender is not binary. All media professionals who are women identifying, as well as non-binary people, are welcome to apply to the Accelerator.
