THE FUTURE OF JOURNALISM INITIATIVE is a collaborative research hub where journalists, academics and students work together and independently on innovative research projects that further the collective knowledge and understanding of journalism practice. The FJI’s aim is to incubate ideas and nurture the objectives of students and researchers, while fostering creative and academic partnerships with other likeminded institutions in the industry and the academy, engaging visiting practitioners and academics on projects that serve a public interest and/or which bolster the study of journalism in society.
With a designated research fund, an emerging reporter bursary and a visiting research fellowship drawn from the academy and industry, the FJI brings together journalism students and faculty with an external network of researchers and professionals to engage on projects that investigate different challenges facing the media and society.
