Knight Fellows - Stanford University


Abstract:
Stanford’s Knight fellowship program offers a unique opportunity for experienced journalists a space to rethink journalism by providing the space and time to innovate. Five teams of Knight fellows will share their ideas on using technology to push the boundaries of journalism. They will discuss ideas to empower non-professional journalists to create compelling news stories for the new media, using technology to share government information across boundaries, circumventing censorship and other ideas.

Presentations will be made by:

Grima Fantaye
Djordje Padejski
Deepa Fernandes
Emad Mekay
Michelle Holmes

and their teams.
