Nico Colchester Journalism fellowship 2011

Will the euro survive?

If you are a European journalist or would-be journalist and would like to be considered for a three-month Nico Colchester fellowship this year at the

Financial Times or The Economist, then send in a 1,000 word article on the subject above, in English, together with a CV and covering letter.

The Nico Colchester Foundation’s aim is to help continental writers understand Britain and British writers understand continental Europe. Two awards are thus available this year: one, for a British or Irish applicant, will consist of a fellowship in continental Europe at the Financial Times; the other, for an applicant from elsewhere in the European Union, will be in London at The Economist. Both winners will receive a bursary of £5,000 to cover accommodation and travel.

Entries should be sent, by the closing date of March 31st 2011, by e-mail only to ncprize@economist.com
