Membership

Joining the Guild

The guild is open to working Filipino freelance journalists. Applicants must show active, independent practice in print, digital, or broadcast journalism. The membership committee verifies every application before membership is granted.

Three stages

How verification works

Applicants move through three stages. Each step is reviewed by peers, so trust is built inside the guild rather than imposed from outside.

Stage one

Apply

Submit a portfolio of your published or broadcast work, an endorsement from an FFJ member in good standing, and a completed application form.

Stage two

Committee review

The membership committee reviews your application and verifies your work, your endorsement, and your independent practice.

Stage three

Membership confirmation

Once the committee approves your application, it confirms your membership.
