EWA Announces 17th Class of Reporting Fellows
Reporters receive financial awards for innovative education journalism.
The Education Writers Association is pleased to announce its 17th class of EWA Reporting Fellows. These competitive fellowships are part of the organization’s drive to support enterprise journalism that informs the public about consequential issues in education.
EWA selected 11 projects this round. Each EWA Reporting Fellowship provides up to $8,000 to help cover reporting costs, plus other assistance.
“The caliber of the new fellows and their projects reflects the vital, timely work being done by our journalists members in newsrooms large and small,” said Kathy Chow, EWA’s executive director. “We are thrilled to kick off the new year with such encouraging evidence of the strength and importance of the education beat.”
The winter 2024 EWA Reporting Fellows represent a diverse mix of news organizations and projects. Most of their work will be published in the 2023-24 academic year.
