Come help us with Romea.cz! ROMEA seeks journalists

We are looking for journalists who would like to help us improve the contant of news server Romea.cz and contribute to the magazine Romano voďi. Applicants should also be able to place pieces with other media outlets as well.
Those interested should be generally oriented in the human rights field and in areas concerning Romani people in the Czech Republic and the world. The aim of the year-long project "ROK JINAK" (One Year Differently, sponsored by the Vodafone Foundation) is to improve and professionalize Romea.cz and Romano voďi magazine.
Interested journalists should send a CV to romea@romea.cz, with "ROK JINAK" in the subject line. The most important conditions are:
Applicants must be at least 18 years of age when they apply and must be able to prove they have work experience (the program is not intended for new graduates).
Applicants must not have been unemployed for more than three months when they apply.
The winning applicant must be employed full-time by the ROMEA nonprofit organization during the project period.
The winning applicant must not have worked in the nonprofit sector in a paid position (either as an employee or subcontractor) for one year prior to applying; volunteer work for a nonprofit organization, however, is an advantage.
