BETD Media Fellowship for Journalists

BETD Media Fellowship for Journalists

On 28 – 29 March 2023, the German Government invites the world to its annual inspiring dialogue on the Global Energiewende, the Berlin Energy Transition Dialogue (#betd23), which has become the leading international forum on the green energy transformation.

Every year, high-level participants from politics, industry, science and civil society gather in Berlin for two days to discuss the shift to a sustainable energy system. In 2022 the BETD took place as a hybrid conference with limited access. This year’s dialogue is planned to be held as a traditional on-site conference with a public stream of the ongoing program.

For several years, the Federal Foreign Office, Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ) and the German Renewable Energy Federation (BEE e.V.) invite international journalists to report on the BETD.

This BETD Media Fellowship allows young journalists from around the world to gather in the German capital in order to gain access to this exclusive conference, talk to high-level stakeholders from science, politics, industry and civil society as well as connect with other BETD Media Fellows.

We invite you to become part of the BETD 2023 and to report on the discussions and proposed innovative energy solutions. We offer you the unique opportunity to join us in Berlin and look behind the scenes of the Global Energiewende.

Following parts are included in the fellowship program:

Travel & accommodation paid trip to Berlin for the BETD and Berlin Energy Week
