Sharon Dunwoody Science Journalism Mentoring Program

The Sharon Dunwoody Science Journalism Mentoring Program is a free cohort-based mentoring program aimed at increasing the diversity of voices covering science and supporting journalists who are from underrepresented communities or who have experienced higher than average barriers to entry to the field. Through this program we aim to provide the skills and community support to help journalists do their best work in covering science. This program offers participants the opportunity to explore their career interests, challenges, and passions and to sharpen their skills as part of a talented, supportive, diverse mentoring community. The program is managed by Sandeep Ravindran, an experienced science journalist based in Bethesda, Maryland.
