Inter American Press Association (IAPA)-Scholarships
The Inter American Press Association (IAPA) was established in 1942 to defend and promote the right of the peoples of the Americas to be fully and freely informed through an independent press. This right is basic to the survival of a free society and individual liberty. At the same time the IAPA recognized that an independent press, fundamental as it is, could not be the sole objective. Needed also was perceptive reporting that would contribute to better understanding among the countries of the Western Hemisphere. It was for this reason that in 1954 the IAPA established a scholarship fund for young journalists and journalism school graduates. Under this program, U.S. and Canadian scholars spend an academic year studying and reporting in Latin America and the Caribbean, and Latin American and Caribbean scholars spend an academic year studying at a recognized U.S. or Canadian journalism school.
