Have you got a foreign news story in you?

On behalf of the Tom Walker Trust, The Sunday Times is inviting proposals from journalism students suggesting a foreign news story. The closing date is July 1st, 2009.

The Tom Walker Trust was started a couple of years ago in honour of the former Times journalist. This special award offers a great opportunity to a student wishing to tackle foreign affairs and to develop his or her own idea for a report in the field. The winner will receive £1,000, four weeks experience with the foreign desk of The Sunday Times and the chance to work with a senior correspondent as well as doing his/her own assignment.

The trustees of the Tom Walker Trust will announce the shortlist of names in July and the winner will be chosen and announced shortly afterwards.

Enter by emailing Val Harper val.harper@sunday-times.co.uk. You also need to attach your CV with their entry.
