Rupert Cornwell Award: 5,000 bursary for budding foreign correspondents
"From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging."
"The Independent, in association with the Rupert Cornwell Trust, has opened applications for its annual award to honour the memory of one of our longest-serving foreign correspondents, who was one of the most distinguished in the business. Rupert's writing was infused with wisdom, marked out by its elegance and an unquenchable curiosity, and these are some of the qualities that we are looking for in the award winner."
The Independent covers topics from reproductive rights and climate change to Big Tech by sending journalists to report on the ground. Donations enable continued travel and reporting so journalists can investigate issues like Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC and produce documentary projects such as 'The A Word'. The Independent keeps reporting and analysis freely accessible without paywalls, relying on supporters and donors to sustain quality journalism. The Rupert Cornwell Trust partnership funds an annual award and a £5,000 bursary for a foreign reporting project focused on North America, Europe, or territories of the former Soviet Union, excluding conflict or clearly unsafe areas.
