Immigration policy is at the forefront of the Trump administration’s agenda, with recent executive orders and on-the-ground efforts reshaping the landscape of U.S. immigration in real time. Journalists must be prepared to report on the profound impacts across the nation.
Poynter’s Beat Academy offers an immigration webinar that provides practical insights from experienced reporters and policy experts, equipping journalists with the tools needed to cover this critical beat with accuracy and depth.
For those looking to delve deeper, we’re offering an exclusive reporting workshop in the border city of El Paso, Texas. Selected participants will spend two days on the ground, seeing the border, talking to officials, reporters, business representatives and aid workers to get a fuller picture of the shift in US-Mexico relations. Tariffs and the immigration crackdown in the U.S. interior will feature prominently. Led by veteran immigration reporters and experts, this immersive experience will provide a firsthand look at the complexities of the border and how they connect to immigration stories nationwide.
Spots are limited—join our webinar and apply for the exclusive workshop by April 2 to elevate your immigration reporting. Don’t miss this opportunity to strengthen your reporting, build key sources and gain invaluable experience. Selected participants can also apply for one of five reporting grants, up to $7,500 per project.
