Journalist-in-Residence

Offering our expertise to audiences beyond the scientific community is one of the Cluster’s objectives. One way of enhancing communication between research and the media in the broadest sense is our Journalist-in-Residence program.

The Cluster of Excellence offers experienced journalists in German-speaking countries the opportunity to devote themselves to their own (journalistic) project on the topic of inequality for a period of six weeks to three months. This fellowship serves to deepen the exchange between journalism and social science research. Fellows have the opportunity to engage in intensive exchange with researchers in their chosen field of interest and to familiarize themselves with the data situation and methodological approach to selected topics. The aim is to create an expandable network between fellows and researchers..
