The World Editors Forum Asia Chapter, WAN-IFRA’s regional network for editors, is seeking bright minds in the news media industry for the fourth edition of its leadership development programme, the Temasek Foundation Young Media Leaders Fellowship (YMLF).
The programme aims to identity and nurture the next generation of news media leaders. They should be willing to champion good journalism and strengthen newsroom capabilities to meet societal needs in the rapidly evolving media and digital landscape.
It will support and develop emerging Asian newsroom leaders at various career stages. The programme aspires to foster a collaborative network of media leaders committed to driving positive change within the industry.

YMLF 2022 has unleashed something in my potential that I know of, but not fully aware of previously.
By far the most valuable part of the experience was having the chance to connect with fellow journalists and editors from across the region; to realise the many common challenges that we face and journeys that we are making, while learning about our different approaches and experiences.
The masterclass really helped us young media leaders in coming up with sound decisions to guide our team navigate the changing media landscape. Some of the key takeaways from the sessions are how to be a more self-aware leader; the importance of getting all players involved in newsroom innovations; and new initiatives on how to stay relevant in serving the community better through responsible journalism.
