Good and credible journalism is essential for the equitable development of a country and its citizens in a democracy. But Indian journalism faces several challenges at the moment. Independent journalists, particularly from marginalised backgrounds, working without job security and editorial support need more support than ever.

To support them, the National Foundation for India has launched this media fellowship programme for independent journalists. It provides both financial and editorial support to journalists from across the country. In many languages and format.
