Ghanaian journalist, Ridwan Karim Dini-Osman, has been named a 2025/2026 Nieman Fellow at Harvard University, joining a prestigious group of 22 journalists from nine countries selected to deepen their professional development and explore critical global issues.
Dini-Osman, a broadcast journalist at EIB Network (GHOne TV and Starr FM) and a freelance correspondent for The World - the largest international radio news program in the United States - will spend two semesters at Harvard.
He is the only African selected to join this year's prestigious global cohort and his focus will be on how African newsrooms can improve coverage of marginalised communities despite legal and cultural barriers.
Now in its 88th year, the Nieman Fellowship program has hosted more than 1,700 journalists from 100 countries since its founding in 1938.
