It was named after the legendary radio station \u201cRadio in the American Sector\u201d (RIAS), which was the \u201cvoice of the free world\u201d during the Cold War, broadcasting news, information and music to the former socialist-ruled GDR, where the media was state-controlled. But the RIAS program was also very popular in the free western part of Berlin.<\/p><p>The aim of the exchange between media professionals from both sides of the Atlantic is to keep the spirit of RIAS alive and to promote sustainable networking between the alumni chapters in many cities in Germany and the USA.<\/p><p>Almost 1700 American and German journalists have participated in the exchange programs since then.<\/p><p>The program for American participants includes meetings and discussions with media professionals, political decision-makers and representatives of social groups in Berlin and other cities in Germany as well as meetings in Brussels.<\/p><p>During their stay, participants can spend a few days in the editorial offices of German radio or television stations across country and learn more about the specifics of journalism outside the major media centers. They often meet alumni who have participated in programs in America.<\/p><p>We ask that applicants have a minimum of five years of continued professional experience as full-time radio, TV, or online\/digital journalists. Whether as staff employees or freelancers. German language skills are not required.<\/p><p><span data-olk-copy-source=\"MessageBody\">Please send your completed application forms and required materials (CV, Letter of Recommendation, Essay) in one PDF (max size 5MB) to apply@riasberlin.org.<\/span><\/p><p><strong>Application deadline: November 30th 2025<\/strong><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-eb81b7f elementor-widget elementor-widget-jet-download-button\" data-id=\"eb81b7f\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"jet-download-button.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-jet-download-button jet-elements\"><a class=\"elementor-button elementor-size-md jet-download jet-download-icon-position-left\" data-e-disable-page-transition=\"true\" href=\"https:\/\/riasberlin.org\/de\/?jet_download=cdd8d96f1a9263ab82b0f0a3cb201ee359e9ba79\" ><span class=\"jet-download__icon jet-download-icon-left jet-elements-icon\"><svg aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"e-font-icon-svg e-fas-download\" viewBox=\"0 0 512 512\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"><path d=\"M216 0h80c13.3 0 24 10.7 24 24v168h87.7c17.8 0 26.7 21.5 14.1 34.1L269.7 378.3c-7.5 7.5-19.8 7.5-27.3 0L90.1 226.1c-12.6-12.6-3.7-34.1 14.1-34.1H192V24c0-13.3 10.7-24 24-24zm296 376v112c0 13.3-10.7 24-24 24H24c-13.3 0-24-10.7-24-24V376c0-13.3 10.7-24 24-24h146.7l49 49c20.1 20.1 52.5 20.1 72.6 0l49-49H488c13.3 0 24 10.7 24 24zm-124 88c0-11-9-20-20-20s-20 9-20 20 9 20 20 20 20-9 20-20zm64 0c0-11-9-20-20-20s-20 9-20 20 9 20 20 20 20-9 20-20z\"><\/path><\/svg><\/span><span class=\"jet-download__text\"><span class=\"jet-download__label\">2026&nbsp;RIAS Application<\/span><span class=\"jet-download__file-name\"><\/span><small class=\"jet-download__sub-label\">526 KB<\/small><\/span><\/a>\n<\/div>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div data-particle_enable=\"false\" data-particle-mobile-disabled=\"false\" class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-95238e1 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"95238e1\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\" id=\"gererp\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;,&quot;jet_parallax_layout_list&quot;:[]}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t<div data-particle_enable=\"false\" data-particle-mobile-disabled=\"false\" class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-87ec14b e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"87ec14b\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\" data-settings=\"{&quot;jet_parallax_layout_list&quot;:[]}\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-ce1427b elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"ce1427b\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">3 Week -

Es wurde nach dem legend\u00e4ren Radiosender \u201eRadio im amerikanischen Sektor\u201c (RIAS) benannt, der zu Zeiten des Kalten Krieges die \u201eStimme der freien Welt\u201c war und Nachrichten, Informationen und Musik in die ehemalige sozialistisch regierte DDR sendete, in der die Medien staatlich gelenkt wurden. Aber auch im freien Westteil von Berlin war das Programm von RIAS sehr beliebt.<\/p><p>Das Ziel des Austausches zwischen Medienprofis von beiden Seiten des Atlantiks ist es, den Geist von RIAS lebendig zu halten und eine nachhaltige Vernetzung der Alumni-Chapter in vielen St\u00e4dten in Deutschland und den USA zu f\u00f6rdern.<\/p><p>Fast 1700 amerikanische und deutsche Journalistinnen und Journalisten haben seither an den Austauschprogrammen teilgenommen.<\/p><p>Im Programm f\u00fcr deutsche Teilnehmer stehen Begegnungen und Gespr\u00e4che mit Medienschaffenden, politischen Entscheidern und Vertretern gesellschaftlicher Gruppen in Washington, New York und weiteren St\u00e4dten in den USA.<\/p><p>W\u00e4hrend ihres Aufenthalts k\u00f6nnen Teilnehmer einige Tage in Redaktionen amerikanischer Radio- oder Fernsehsender im Landesinneren verbringen und erfahren dabei mehr \u00fcber die Besonderheiten des Journalismus au\u00dferhalb der gro\u00dfen Medienzentren. Oft treffen sie hier auf Alumni, die an Programmen in Deutschland teilgenommen haben.<\/p><p>Bewerber f\u00fcr das Programm m\u00fcssen f\u00fcnf Jahre Berufserfahrung als Radio-, TV- oder Online\/Digital-Journalisten nachweisen.
