Before a story reaches the screen, it goes through dozens of decisions. For a month, InteRussia fellows from South Asian countries in Journalism stepped into this process — working in newsrooms and engaging with how global media operates.
Here’s how the program unfolded in practice
🌱 At the Sputnik studio, fellows followed editorial processes from the inside observing how stories are selected, shaped, and adapted for different audiences.
🌱 Fellows had the opportunity to speak with Maria Zakharova and Andrey Rudenko, as well as other representatives from the foreign policy and media sphere.
🌱 The program also included visits to major media platforms such as RT and TV BRICS. Fellows explored how international broadcasting works in practice.
🌱 Walking through Moscow and a visit to the ballet at the Bolshoi Theatre offered a different form of storytelling where expression is carried through movement, music, and visual composition.
By the end of the program, the experience brought together different aspects of journalism — from newsroom practice to public dialogue and cultural observation — showing how stories are shaped across spaces, formats, and perspectives.
🎊And if you want to be part of this experience — just go for it.
The InteRussia fellowship in journalism for South Asia countries is implemented by the Mezhdunarodniki Autonomous Non-Profit Organisation in cooperation with the Gorchakov Fund and the Sputnik International News Agency and Radio Broadcast Service with grant support from the Presidential Grants Foundation.
