Journey: Journalism Bootcamp is an intensive 10-day annual summer course in practical journalism skills, taking place in Prague and organized by the Bakala Foundation since 2015. It is for journalism or media studies students who have finished at least two semesters of university education (or studies at higher/vocational schools of journalism) and who show strong interest in a career in reporting and news production.

We have hosted lecturers from the BBC, Bloomberg, CNN, the New York Times, ProPublica, Reuters, Storyful, Mashable.com, and the Wall Street Journal. Our lecturers have included several Pulitzer Prize winners, such as Seymour Hersh, Jesse Eisinger, Charles Ornstein, and Tracy Weber.

Students will also spend two days reporting from Prague where they will produce stories under deadline. By the end of the course, students should be able to more confidently report and write breaking news as well as produce long-form stories while adhering to the highest ethical standards. Each student will also be required to pitch, report and write a long-form story on an assigned theme.
