ECPMF: Journalists-in-Residence
The European Centre for Press and Media Freedom gives threatened journalists up to 6 months of respite in Leipzig: a free flat, 1,000 euros a month, health insurance, travel, visa costs and a psychologist. Residents of Russia and Belarus can apply directly.
You need an application form, a CV and two reference letters from human rights or media organisations. This is a temporary residency, not asylum. The centre's legal support (legal@ecpmf.eu) is only for people working in European countries.
Other ways to reach them: legal support: legal@ecpmf.eu · legal support: terms
