Apply to become an Omidyar Network Reporter in Residence
Compelling journalism is more than just a series of headlines; it’s a formidable force that shapes public discourse, holds power to account, and brings new ideas to life. At Omidyar Network, we believe this type of reporting is critical in shaping more equitable and inclusive societies. That’s why we launched the Reporters in Residence program at the beginning of this year. Since then, we’ve worked with six talented freelance journalists who have covered a wide range of issues tying back to the economy. Now, we’re recruiting for our next class.The Reporters in Residence program is a unique initiative aimed at empowering journalists who are committed to addressing critical economic issues through their work. This program is designed to enable a group of freelance journalists to devote more time to the type of deep, nuanced reporting that drives national conversations and informs policy debates. Our goal is to provide participants with the resources, networks, and support they need to tell more stories with even more impact. The program sits within Omidyar Network’s Reimagining Capitalism focus area — which works to shape a new, inclusive economy where markets serve the interests of all people and society — and includes Worker Power; Corporations, Capital Markets & the Common Good, and New Economic Paradigms among its priorities. The three reporters selected for the program will take on beats in alignment with these areas, exploring topics such as the growing movement for worker solidarity, the changing role of corporations in society, and new policy ideas that could fundamentally alter the shape of our economy.
