As Henley Business School Africa dean and director Jon Foster-Pedley explains, the scholarship honours one of South African journalism’s greatest practitioners by giving two current practitioners a once in a lifetime opportunity to step out of the newsroom and into the classroom not just to find new depths within themselves, but also hopefully to emerge with the tools to recalibrate the media industry when they graduate.
Eligibility Criteria
The scholarship is open to investigative journalists and media practitioners who have shown courage and determination in their craft.
Offered Benefits
The Sol Plaatje scholarship covers all the fees involved in a post graduate diploma in management practice and a Master’s degree in Business Administration (MBA).
Application Process
Individuals that are leading contributors in the media’s voice for truth and would like to apply to be considered for the Henley Africa Sol Plaatje scholarship are encouraged to contact before Tuesday, 28 February.
