Our Fellowship is a springboard for new talent covering stories globally with integrity and creativity.
We build connections between emerging and established players in the media and international development sector.
Through our annual series of events, workshops and the Global Short Docs Forum we bring together a global network of filmmakers, journalists and industry leaders.
We celebrate underreported stories that break down prejudice and connect cultures.
Our One World Media Awards recognise the best media coverage of the global south.
One World Media is a non-profit organisation founded over 30 years ago by a group of journalists who recognised international reporting at that time was limited and often reinforcing stereotypes. They set out to encourage and celebrate more and better quality reporting from the global south.
Since then we have been working to support journalists and filmmakers globally to tell stories that inform and connect us all.
