The Rest & Resilience Fellowship

© Nick Jaussi

The 2025 Call for Applications is closed.

The Rest & Resilience Fellowship is a joint project of Reporters Without Borders (RSF) and the taz Panter Foundation. Since 2015, two journalists from countries with restricted freedom of the press and information have been invited yearly to Berlin.

The fellowship program can be individually tailored to each fellow's needs and interests and does not require participation in a structured daily program. However, during the stay in Berlin, joint activities and visits to media houses are offered, and the fellows gain insights into the work of Reporters Without Borders, a globally active human rights organisation, and the taz Panter Foundation, which supports independent and critical journalists in close cooperation with the tageszeitung (taz).
 

Application deadline: The application deadline has passed; no further applications can be accepted.
Planned period of stay: May 1st to October 31st, 2025
