[Moses joel Adetokunbo]

The 2024 Berlin Scholarship Program in Germany is a fully funded training opportunity for media professionals. The program, hosted by Reporter Ohne Grenzen (RSF) Germany, focuses on digital security and equips participants with the skills to assess dangers and emphasizes that "Absolute Security" doesn't exist. It offers technical learning, fosters lasting bonds among participants, and promotes cultural understanding through shared experiences.

Details of the program include holistic security basics, operational security, online identity management, secure online communication concepts, and more. Eligible applicants must be exposed to digital threats and experienced digital violence, and be willing to fully participate in the program.

The benefits of the program include coverage of travel costs, visa-related matters, accommodation in Berlin, a monthly allowance, health insurance, and public transportation. Additionally, participants will receive extensive training in digital security and gain insights into the activities of Reporters Without Borders Germany.
