VLGS’s Environmental Law Center is currently seeking journalists focused on environmental or food and agricultural law and policy.

The fellowships are open to full-time journalists who cover environmental issues, such as natural resources, energy, legal affairs, public health, food and agriculture and other related subjects.

Selected 2026 media fellows have access to distinguished faculty and visiting policy leaders whom they can connect with to develop fresh insights, meet new sources and gain renewed enthusiasm for covering the critical issues in climate change, food and agriculture, energy and other areas.

Media fellows will audit environmental or food and agriculture courses in June or July 2026, receiving a two-week $1,250 stipend, free housing and a tuition waiver (travel not included). A one-week option is available with a $625 stipend.
