2. Panel: How journalists can cover international affairs from America
From our trade relationship with China to accusations of Russian meddling with the 2016 election, Americans depend on the media the information they need to understand our relationships with other nations. But with shuttered overseas bureaus and shrinking travel budgets, fewer journalists are able to report from foreign datelines.
This workshop, organized by the Global Journalism Task Force and the Pulitzer Center, will bring together journalists who have been covering the world from America with NABJ members who want to report on international affairs but may not be able to go abroad themselves. We will explore how reporters and engage their communities to report important local angles to international stories as well as how editors can use stringers, freelancers, and academic experts to give their readers a better understanding of the world we share. The workshop will also touch on resources and opportunities for those who want to get their feet wet in international reporting through short assignments and fellowships. Participants:

Hayes Brown, Deputy World News Editor for BuzzFeed News (moderator)
Stacey Samuel, supervising editor at NPR.
Karen Attiah, Global Opinions editor and producer at the Washington Post
Eugenia Harvey, executive producer for Third Rail with OZY.com
Janelle Richards, Pulitzer Center grantee and producer at Nightly News with Lester Holt
Phillip Martin, Pulitzer Center grantee and senior investigative reporter at WGBH Boston Public Radio

3. Panel: Making the Pitch: How to Land Grants and Reporting Fellowships
Newsroom cutbacks mean more journalists are pursuing nontraditional paths to report on important stories and to develop their careers. This workshop will help journalists of color develop the skills and confidence to get grants or fellowships. We'll show how to craft the perfect pitch, draft budgets and other requirements.

Moderator: Lottie Joiner, independent journalist and Fund for Investigative Journalism board member
Bobby Caina Calvan, Collaborations Editor, Reveal from the Center for Investigative Reporting; and Director of Operations, The Fund for Investigative Journalism
Lynette Clemetson, Director of Wallace House, home of the Knight-Wallace fellowships for journalists and the Livingston Awards
Tom Hundley, Senior Editor, Pulitzer Center
Laird Townsend, Director, Freelance Investigative Reporters and Editor (FIRE)
LOCATION:Detroit Marriott at the Renaissance Center, 400 Renaissance Drive West, Detroit, MI, 48243
