Reuters Institute Journalist Fellows explore the lessons learned in lockdown
The Journalist Fellows from the Reuters Institute for the Study of Journalism opened the Institute’s Trinity term’s Global Journalism Seminars with a discussion on lessons learned from their research during the COVID-19 lockdown.
A unique group of Journalist Fellows from Kyrgyzstan, India, Hungary, Norway, Finland, Indonesia, Pakistan, Kenya, Egypt, Nicaragua and Brazil explored where journalism is, where it’s going, and where it could be around the world.
Chairing the seminar, Meera Selva, Director of the Fellowship Programme and Deputy Director of the Institute, said: “We have carried on the Fellowship here despite lockdown, speaking about the future of journalism and the challenges facing the news industry because it feels like it’s vital to have these conversations now more than ever.”

Green Templeton College is proud of its connection with the Reuters Institute for the Study of Journalism. Journalist Fellows are given Visiting Scholar status at Green Templeton during their time in Oxford, allowing them access to the college’s wide-ranging facilities, and Principal Sir Michael Dixon is a member of the Reuters Institute Steering Committee.
The Global Journalism Seminars usually take place in Green Templeton’s EP Abraham Lecture Theatre but are currently being held online.
Congratulations to everyone who`s graduated on Saturday 23 May.
Echoing what alumna Catherine Heffernan (DPhil Sociology, 1998) said in her speech, we hope you enjoyed every second of your graduation.
👏You have earned your degree - a major milestone in your life.👏
