Silja Raunio selected as Helsingin Sanomat Constructive fellow

We are happy to announce that Silja Raunio has been selected as the first Helsingin Sanomat Constructive fellow, starting in 2018.

The Constructive Institute Fellowship Program is modelled after journalism fellowship programs at Stanford University in San Francisco and at Harvard University in Boston. The program aims to give talented media professionals, with a potential to influence the future of journalism, access to an academic bank of knowledge at a top class university for the duration of an academic year. The aim of the program is to enable the fellows to strengthen their knowledge of their chosen topic areas, as well as to explore existing solutions to problems in the fields they are or will be covering.

The Helsingin Sanomat Foundation is a private, non-profit organization. The purpose of the Helsingin Sanomat Foundation is to secure the future of Finnish media and quality journalism as well as to support freedom of speech.

We welcome Silja and wish her the best of success!
