The Inter American Press Association was established in 1942 to defend and promote the right of the peoples of the Americas to be freely informed through an independent press, essential for which is a journalism that is responsible, objective and open to all currents, so as thus to contribute to a better understanding among the peoples of the Western Hemisphere. In 1954, IAPA established its Scholarship Fund for young American or Canadian journalists for an academic year's study in some Latin American or Caribbean country, and for young Latin American and Caribbean journalists to take courses in journalism at some recognized university in the United States or Canada during one academic year.

Journalism students will have to complete their university studies before the start of the scholarship year. Latin American applicants will have to undergo a TOEFL test (Test of English as a Foreign Language). Applications and their respective documentation shall be received by January 31.
