The Nieman Society of Southern Africa invites journalists to apply for the 2013 Nieman Fellowship at Harvard University.
The Fellowships were established in 1938. They are the oldest fellowships for mid-career journalists in the world and are awarded to working journalists of outstanding achievement.
The purpose of the Fellowship is to provide an opportunity for journalists to study and broaden their intellectual horizons. As Harvard does not offer courses in journalism, Nieman Fellows are free to pursue a wide variety of academic interests
