Tower Tomorrow Fellowship
The Israel Project's Tower Tomorrow Fellowship offers a select group of university students a challenging summer aimed at educating future journalists, writers and advocacy professionals in research, analysis, writing for publication, strategic communications and media management.
Working with world-class writers and media professionals, Fellows will learn about coverage of Israel and the region, meet with journalists, scholars, and diplomats, and undertake an intensive eight-week course.
Tower Tomorrow Fellows participate in a rigorous writing seminar, write and revise 2,000-word nonfiction articles on Israel and the Middle East, and receive detailed individual feedback. Fellows also practice short-form writing and gain an understanding of strategic communications and messaging by composing daily blog posts on current events in the Middle East.
Fellows work closely with key members of The Israel Project’s staff and gain an understanding of TIP’s cutting-edge work in strategic communications through rotations in the organization’s various departments. Fellows also engage in informal social events where they have the opportunity to get to know other members of The Israel Project staff, including senior leadership.
Fellows regularly meet with some of Washington’s most influential journalists, experts, and policymakers for intimate seminars on how ideas flow through contemporary society. Additionally, Fellows also visit distinguished Washington institutions such as The Washington Post, Israel’s Embassy to the United States, NBC News, and the United States Congress in order to get an insider’s view of their work.
The Israel Project aims to cultivate and new generation of pro-Israel leaders in policy, thought, media and advocacy. Accordingly, following the conclusion of the Fellowship program, Fellows are eligible to apply for monetary grants to help them establish campus publications, through which they can build on the experience and tools they gained during the summer, while relying on continued TIP resources and training.
Through both Fellowship activities and post-Fellowship opportunities, Tower Tomorrow Fellows gain connections and skills that empower them in making a decisive impact on their home campus and the public conversation at large.
