Journalism Volunteer Programs
Journalism is an industry that requires an unmatched level of initiative and drive. Volunteering in journalism is a great way to show potential employers you have passion for the field, and the tenacity to dive into it without a focus on monetary compensation. Additionally, volunteer work abroad shows employers and graduate schools you have an adventurous side, a worldly curiosity, and a yearning for a better picture of the world, all invaluable characteristics in the field of journalism.

Why Volunteer Abroad in Journalism
There are abundant opportunities to volunteer abroad in journalism. In newsrooms, for example, producers, reporters, and editors are always in need of additional staff to assist them with their daily task flow. Volunteering in a foreign newsroom will give you remarkably unique work experience and the chance to make connections you may never have the opportunity to make otherwise. Therefore, becoming a volunteer abroad in journalism will also give you a big boost in the job market, or it could pave the way for your acceptance into graduate school.
Many countries throughout Africa, Asia, and South America are experiencing increasing access to fair media coverage, but there are still many communities that live without it. By volunteering in journalism abroad, you will contribute to news access abroad. Additionally, you can help promote fair, unbiased, honest news reporting. Due to censorship issues, many people are provided with inaccurate accounts of events, because of this organizations have developed, such as Al Jazeera, that seek to provide free discussion and information consumption for all, regardless of nationality. Conducting volunteer work with this type of media organization will no doubt be a learning experience and a chance to learn and share invaluable skills.
