New: Training and Mentorship Program for Emerging Photojournalists in British Columbia June 15 to September 30, 2026
About the Program The Globe and Mail Foundation’s photojournalism training programs cover topics including historical and contemporary practice within documentary photography, sustainability and funding, professional networking, and more. The program is designed to fill the gap in the availability of training opportunities for photographers inCanada, benefit public understanding of and engagement with key issues and stories through high‑quality training of visual storytellers, and promote excellence in the craft.
Designed by Chris Donovan, an experienced photojournalist and educator, this program will help develop a new generation of visual storytellers in Canada who are unhindered by student loan debt, and focused on using their craft to shape the ways in which Canadians see themselves for decades to come.
Training and Mentorship Course for Emerging Photojournalists in British Columbia (12‑weeks, online) Given the gaps in regional news and storytelling, the hardships that graduates face in today’s job market, and the need to nurture underrepresented perspectives in Canadian media, The Globe and Mail Foundation will run a unique and intensive training opportunity that will benefit a diverse cohort of early‑career journalists, providing them with expert, early‑career photojournalism training and mentorship.
The program will train and support up to six promising graduates with a focus on applicants from Indigenous, rural, and other underrepresented communities in B.C. Between June and September, students will take part in a weekly online session, with additional office hours, led by an experienced photojournalist whose work focuses on issues of class and environmental justice in rural Canada.
The course will feature a series of educators and presenters based in British Columbia. Students will be asked to develop or build on an existing visual storytelling project within the duration of the course.
The initiative will offer each self‑identifying Indigenous participant a dedicated mentor from a partnering organization. Each student shall receive $250 upon completing the course and as mentorship begins.
There are up to six spots available. To apply for participation, please submit your contact information, a 250‑300 word statement outlining why this program would benefit you, how you meet the criteria below, and the specific project you wish to work on during the program.
