About our Media Programme
The Foundation's Media Programme helps New Zealand journalists cover stories that shed light on Asia and on New Zealand’s ties to the region.
We support journalists to build their knowledge of Asia by providing Media Travel Grants, internships in Asian newsrooms as well as other opportunities.
Media Travel Grants
Our Media Travel Grants provide New Zealand journalists with funding to travel independently to Asia to research and prepare stories – to help demystify Asia for New Zealand audiences.
