Fellows & Partners
The Media Impact Project is a hub for research that advances the field of media measurement and helps organizations assess the impact of media. We aim to serve as a convener -- both online and offline -- and to prioritize the dissemination of our research and case studies through our own networks of thought leaders and practitioners and with our partner organizations.
The MIP Research Fellowship is designed to support individuals conducting research across the areas of interest to our funders and project partners.
