RIAS Berlin Commission plans 8 programs in 2023

The RIAS Berlin Commission is planing to operate a total of eight exchange programs for broadcast journalists in the United States and Germany in 2023 for a total of about 130 journalists. There will be four programs to Germany for American journalists (in June, July, and two in September) and four programs to the United States for German journalists (in March, April, and two in October).

Along with the two standard programs to Germany and the United States, the RIAS Berlin Commission is planning to run two three-week-long European Recovery Program (ERP)-funded programs for students — one to the United States in March/April and one to Germany in June/July. The RBK is also planning two major alumni programs for American alumni to Munich and Cologne in September and for German alumni to Los Angeles in October.
