What is MigraVoice’s “pop-up newsroom”?

The pop-up newsroom is a six-month programme that will award €2,000 grants to selected journalists to develop a multimedia journalistic piece. The work will be published in an Are We Europe magazine and partner media outlets. The stories will also be adapted into various formats and for different platforms, from a print magazine to social media content.

At the start of the programme, the selected journalists will attend a three-day bootcamp in Berlin in June. At this event, participating journalists will receive training from international media experts, practical and in-depth editorial guidance, and the opportunity to network.
