Have a look at some noteworthy journalistic events happening across the EU this spring that we selected for you.
The MOST mobility programme enables Belarusians to participate in professional events throughout the European Union. The key consideration is to select an event that is relevant to your needs and to submit the application form a minimum of three months before the event date.
With the assistance of our experts, we have identified the most significant journalism events that will be held in various locations across the EU in spring 2025.
If you want to get serious about professional development, consider attending one of the major specialised international conferences. At these events, you can learn about the latest media trends, meet colleagues from different countries, and participate in practical workshops. These are truly unique opportunities to grow and network professionally!
The Voices Festival, February 27 – March 1, 2025, Zagreb, Croatia: https://voicesfestival.eu/
https://www.journalismfestival.com/
The programme will be published soon. This is the biggest annual journalism festival, so it should be exciting and valuable.
World News Media Congress, May 4-6, 2025, Krakow, Poland: https://wan-ifra.org/events/world-news-media-congress-2025/
This event is aimed at publishers and editors but will also be of interest to journalists.
We also recommend looking into international organisations that organise professional events for media professionals, as well as training programmes and study visits. There are few programmes available at the beginning of the year, but it is worth checking the websites and social media accounts of the organisations regularly. You may also directly contact the organisation you are interested in by writing a letter outlining your request for an internship.
