2005 Seeing the World through New Eyes Fellowship recipients
The Jack Webster Foundation announced five recipients of the new Seeing the World through New Eyes fellowship established in partnership with the Canadian International Development Agency (CIDA). These five BC journalists will visit East Africa in 2006 to experience firsthand reporting from developing countries: "These fellowships will benefit BC journalists who want an opportunity to see beyond their borders, witness firsthand Canadian organizations that help in developing countries and also view the developing world from a perspective of the people who live there," said Steve Crombie, Co-Chair of the Jack Webster Foundation "By arranging these fellowships with the support of CIDA, it is the Foundation's goal to offer British Columbia journalists an experience that will widen their horizons in a globally significant way." A training seminar in January preceded March travel to Africa with project team leader Don Cayo, Vancouver Sun columnist and veteran reporter on global development issues. Neither the Jack Webster Foundation nor CIDA will have editorial control on the resulting work of the fellowship recipients. Reports from the 2005 recipients  |
