Fellows travel to Asia and research and prepare stories on several themes including energy, natural resources and the environment; human rights and development; global economy; education, culture and communities; and politics and security. "The program aims to help Canadian journalists to become better informed about this dynamic part of the world in order to write and broadcast insightfully on Asia and the Canada-Asia relationship," reads the foundation's website. 

The last day to apply is Feb. 15, 2013.
