A
visit
to a refugee camp in Malawi, Africa
The overall winner will be invited to a refugee camp in
Malawi as the guest of JRS Southern Africa, where they will
meet refugees, representatives of NGOs and local media.
JRS will advertise and circulate material written by the
student journalist during this trip.
The idea behind this trip is that people in Europe
should understand why asylum seekers and refugees arrive
in Europe. The way the majority of people get their
information is through journalists. We hope the
competition will connect Europe and refugee-producing
countries such as those in Africa.
Please Note: JRS will provide full travel
insurance for those applicants awarded visits to
Brussels and/or Malawi; however, JRS cannot be held
responsible for the security of any applicant during his
or her travel to or from, or stay in, either country.
All applicants travel at their own risk.
