SUMMARY:Climate Journalism: Free Online Course on Investigative Reporting for Every Beat
DESCRIPTION:“Climate change now runs through every reporting beat\, from energy and politics to food systems\, health and local news\, making it one of the most complex stories journalists can investigate today. \n“Yet\, despite its reach\, it remains one of the most challenging topics to cover\, especially when it comes to following power\, money and accountability across systems and borders. \n“To tackle this growing issue\, the Knight Center for Journalism in the Americas and the Global Investigative Journalism Network (GIJN) have joined forces to offer a new free online course: ‘Climate journalism: investigative reporting for every beat.’ The course will run from June 1 to June 28\, 2026\, and is offered in English and Spanish.”

SUMMARY:DEADLINE: Uproot Ocean Nexus International Fellowship
DESCRIPTION:“The Ocean Nexus International Fellowship is a program for journalists created by Ocean Nexus in collaboration with the Uproot Project\, seeking to advance transformative changes at the intersection of ocean governance\, social justice\, and equity. Participating journalists\, working closely with Ocean Nexus scientists\, aim to deepen their understanding of how our relationship with the ocean is intertwined with systemic inequities\, particularly within historically marginalized communities\, across the globe. As a part of the fellowship\, fellows produce resource guides that will help other journalists understand the topics they covered and help expand the body of knowledge about ocean equity.” \nThe three-month fellowship (June-August 2026) is for non-US journalists who are members of Uproot (free to join) or one of its partners and includes a $2\,000 stipend. Apply by June 14\, 11:59 p.m. GMT.

SUMMARY:SWCC In-Person Workshop: Moderating for Impact
DESCRIPTION:“Science writers and communicators are often asked to drive discussions by moderating or sitting on panels in a variety of professional and public venues. How they perform these roles has a big impact on how audiences contextualize important issues and these are roles of increasing importance given the current geopolitical climate. Additionally\, acting in these roles can be an important source of income and professional experience. Despite this\, there is little training for journalists and science communicators on how to maximize the impacts of these experiences for audiences and moderators. Consequently\, panel events often fall into predictable patterns: a mic passed up and down a role of panelists\, a lack of on-stage chemistry\, awkward and sometimes uncomfortable inequity of air time\, and a missed opportunity for everyone. \n“But it doesn’t have to be this way! Dynamic\, inclusive\, entertaining experiences can help tell meaningful\, memorable stories. Effective hosting is a performance that requires artful preparation\, creativity and engagement\, augmenting and managing a well-chosen format and structure. In addition to teaching basic moderation and facilitation skills\, this workshop will help science communications and media professionals hone their hosting skills by tackling pre-event preparation\, dynamic event formats\, stage-presence\, on-stage and virtual interviewing\, participant management and audience engagement. Participants will by guided through improvisational techniques to create and experiment with a variety of panel and other moderated formats in a safe\, innovation-friendly environment. We’ll develop a vocabulary for managing on stage conversations and use role playing scenarios to try out different styles and techniques in a low-stakes collaborative and supportive environment.” \n\nWhere: Montreal\, Quebec\nCost: TBD\n\nRegistration opens soon.
