The world is facing an era of unprecedented health challenges, from epidemics and disease outbreaks to the far-reaching impacts of humanitarian crises. In this landscape, we need a new generation of storytellers equipped to report facts and tell urgent, human-centered stories that can drive awareness, accountability, and action.

These stories aren’t just global, they’re deeply local. They demand storytellers who understand the cultural, political, and systemic factors shaping health outcomes on the ground.

That’s why this program is investing in emerging journalism from the Global South across regions, often at the epicenter of global health emergencies, yet underrepresented in coverage. From reporting on vaccine equity in Sub-Saharan Africa to humanitarian crises in conflict zones, to the resilience of frontline workers, this program will train you to find the stories that matter and tell them in depth, context, and impact.
