WHAT DO OUR FORMER GNI FELLOWS SAY?

Throughout the GNI Fellowship I have experienced firsthand the potential (and abundance!) of Open Government Data to work on the most pressing environmental issues of our time.

'19 Fellow at de Volkskrant

I learned a lot about verification and checking every last piece of information, no matter how small, during my fellowship. It was a great way into the newsroom and will definitely benefit my future career.

Orla Dwyer

'19 Fellow at Thejournal.ie

The GNI Fellowship was a fascinating experience. It gave me an opportunity to get to know more about the data journalism which is a very challenging but still rewarding form of journalistic work.
