The APF Canada Media Fellowship Program, launched in 1986, offers two Canadian journalists the opportunity to spend time in Asia researching and preparing stories for Canadian audiences. The goal of the program is to help Canadian journalists become better informed about this dynamic part of the world in order to write and broadcast insightfully on Asia and Canada-Asia relations.
Two 2026-2027 APF Canada Media Fellows will receive up to C$10,000 each for travel, accommodation, and in-country expenses. This year, proposals that align with the Foundation’s current work around emerging technology, AI and data governance, economic security and supply chain resilience, maritime governance and security, energy security, climate solutions, space, trade and investment, and the Arctic will be given preferential consideration.
The Media Fellowship program is open to any journalist who is a citizen or Permanent Resident of Canada, employed by a Canadian magazine, newspaper, news service, business publication, radio, television station, new media or multimedia outlet as a reporter, feature writer, columnist, or as a freelancer. Applicants must have at least two years experience in their field and have an established history of publication in Canadian news media. Applicants must also ensure they have or are eligible for the appropriate visas to enter, transit, and exit their country or countries of interest.
Deadline: August 31, 2026 at 11:59 p.m. PT
