Journalists from across Asia are being invited to apply for the tenth round of the Asia Journalism Fellowship.

This year's Fellowship will to run in Singapore from July 16 to October 5, and is expected to bring around 15 Asian journalists to the city, fully sponsored.

Applications are open until 30 March 2018.

Since its launch in 2009, the AJF has evolved into a prized mid-career programme for outstanding media professionals. Away from the deadline pressures of their jobs, fellows work on individual projects of their choice and participate in a semi-structured programme designed to sharpen professional skills and deepen understanding of trends in media, communication and Asia. Fellows will have access to key newsmakers in Singapore's public sector, business community and civil society, gaining insights into the challenges faced by one of Asia's most cosmopolitan hub cities.

The programme is hosted by the Institute of Policy Studies research centre, which is part of the Lee Kuan Yew School of Policy Studies at the National University of Singapore.
