The German Government invites international journalists for the Berlin Energy Transition Dialogue (BETD) Media Fellowship.
This initiative is associated with the 10th Berlin Energy Transition Dialogue in 2024 (#betd24) and organized by Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ) GmbH in collaboration with Bundesverband Erneuerbare Energie (BEE) on behalf of the German Federal Foreign Office.
Nairametrics learns that the Berlin Energy Transition Dialogue (BETD) Media Fellowship has been providing a platform for young journalists worldwide to converge in the heart of Germany’s capital which allows participants to engage in the conference, converse with influential figures from science, politics, industry, and civil society, and foster connections with fellow BETD Media Fellows from across the globe, contributing to the enhancement of international energy journalism that transcends national boundaries.
The Berlin Energy Transition Dialogue has evolved into the premier global forum for discussions on the transition to green energy.
Annually, distinguished participants from politics, industry, science, and civil society convene in Berlin for a two-day event, exploring the path to a sustainable energy system.
For several years, the German Federal Foreign Office, Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ), and the German Renewable Energy Federation have extended invitations to international journalists, urging them to report on the BETD.
Currently, invitations are open for journalists to become integral parts of BETD.24 and report on the profound discussions and innovative energy solutions proposed during the event.
This unique opportunity offers media practitioners the chance to immerse themselves in the intricacies of the Global Energiewende by gaining behind-the-scenes insights in Berlin.
The following is included in the fellowship program:
- Comprehensive travel and accommodation coverage
