About 60 highly qualified young journalists from all the Eastern Partnership countries (Armenia, Azerbaijan, Belarus, Georgia, Moldova and Ukraine) as well as from Russia have applied for this year’s #M100YEJ, titled “How to finance independent journalism”.

We want to encourage you to continue pursuing your projects and ideas. To all the selected, we hope to provide you valuable advice and contacts for the realisation of your own projects.
