Journalists and media professionals from any news organisation in Sub-Saharan Africa have been invited to apply for the JournalismAI Academy at the London School of Economics and Political Science (LSE) and powered by the Google News Initiative.
June 15 is the deadline to apply for the five-week free online programme that offers journalists and media professionals a deep dive into the potential of artificial intelligence.
“The Academy has been a core programme of the JournalismAI initiative since 2021, training over 180 newsroom professionals from across the globe.
“Following the success of our first cohort of the Academy for Sub-Saharan Africa and as part of our continued efforts to expand our programmes across different regions, we’re excited to launch the second edition. This year, we’ll be selecting 20 participants from across the region to join a new cohort of journalists exploring the intersection of journalism and artificial intelligence,” the organisers stated.
