The Above the Fray Fellowship is an international reporting fellowship created in memory of John Alexander, an extraordinary young journalist who died of sudden heart failure while on assignment in Chongqing, China, in 2007. This Fellowship is a collaboration between NPR and the John Alexander Project.
The Above the Fray Fellowship is designed to give a promising journalist the opportunity to cover important but under-reported international stories. The ideal candidate will be selected based on a proposal to report a story that has not received significant mainstream media attention.
Eligible Candidates
The fellowship is targeted for journalists early in their careers. Those with at least five but no more than seven years of experience are eligible to apply.
Application dates and deadlines vary year to year and are announced on a rolling basis at www.thejohnalexanderproject.org.
