AMMAN — ICFJ-ARIJ Data Journalism Diploma is a 4-month free training program (in Arabic) that brings together 15 of the brightest early and mid-career data journalists from all Arab countries to foster the development of data-driven investigative reporting. The diploma combines tailored trainings, coaching, mentoring, producing and networking opportunities, offering selected journalists a unique and exclusive opportunity to learn, exchange ideas and connect with their counterparts around the Arab world to become advocates of data journalism in their own Arab countries.

Trainees will receive editorial, logistical, technical and financial support to help them produce their personal data-driven investigation, and are to take part in two virtual live training sessions every week (between July and October 2020; on each Saturday and Wed from 19:00 – 21:00 Amman Time) in addition to weekly assignments and the opportunity of being coached and mentored to produce their data-driven investigation as well as participating in the Virtual ARIJ 13th Annual Forum (ARIJ20).  

Funding

Data Journalism Diploma is run by ICFJ Knight Fellowship along with ARIJ.

High commitment is needed. Each trainee will need to attend two live virtual trainings every week between July – Oct 2020, every Saturday and Wed 19:00 – 21:00 Amman Time, in addition to weekly assignments and being coached/mentored in their own investigation.
