Travel and Write with Nicholas Kristof of the NY Times

From his blog:

I’m also announcing my win-a-trip contest for 2016, seeking a university student to travel with me on an expense-paid reporting trip to the developing world. The winner (this year it was Austin Meyer of Stanford University) will write posts for my blog on The New York Times’s website. This will be the 10th anniversary win-a-trip journey, and one former winner, Mitch Smith, is now a Times reporter. Another, Dr. Leana Wen, is health commissioner of Baltimore.

Information about how to apply is on my blog. The Center for Global Development in Washington will pick finalists.  I’m looking for a smart undergraduate or graduate student with great storytelling skills who wants to help shine a light on neglected issues and doesn’t mind bedbugs or warlords.
