African Liberty Writing Fellowship calls for applications for 2025/2026

The African Liberty Writing Fellowship program has opened applications for interested applicants to register. The fellowship program is a year-long training program designed to equip young Africans interested in academia, media, public policy, or any other career in critical and analytical writing with the skills to write opinion articles.

Accepted applicants will complete a five-week mandatory online course. The top thirty-five candidates from the five-week training will be admitted as African Liberty writing fellows.

We’ve helped our fellows get featured in leading African and non-African media outlets. We’ve highlighted some below. You may visit our Media Hits page to see what fellows have published in the last four cohorts.
