Call for Submissions: Course material on Decolonizing Journalism

This call for submissions is targeted at Journalism Educators and Editorial Leaders, especially (but not exclusively) those who based in or working for a news outlet in the Global South OR are Indigenous.

The University of Toronto School of Continuing Studies is looking for short submissions to include in a new course titled: Decolonizing Journalism.

This call for submissions refers specifically to the final module of the course, which will discuss journalism’s future through the lens of leading journalists or non-journalists (but people who work close /adjacent to that space) based outside of North America and Europe.

These individuals can be people who are already developing a new model for journalism, or are practicing it in a way that some may describe as unconventional.

They are looking for a 200-800 word blurb /vision of what you think news will look like in the future, and/or what they think should be the future of journalism or news. These predictions can be written informally or anecdotally.

Submission Guidelines

The deadline for submissions is March 25, 2024.  Please send your submission by email to shenaz.kermalli@utoronto.ca. For more information about the course, please click here.
