Fellowships and workshops

  • Institutes for Journalism & Natural Resources (IJNR)

    IJNR will conduct three expedition-style fellowship programs for journalists during 2006. All three programs will emphasize issues of energy, climate, water and rural development. The expeditions will explore parts of eastern Oregon and Washington (Blue Mountains Institute in May), Michigan and Wisconsin (Great Waters Institute in July) and Wyoming-Colorado-Utah (Energy Country Institute in September). On each trip, journalists will examine conditions and practices of forests, fisheries, farms and energy-production sites.
