Haaretz is accepting pitches for its English-language Jewish World section and is seeking experienced freelance journalists, feature writers, and reporters from around the world.

The publication is looking for timely, original, and deeply reported feature stories ranging from 800 to 2,000 words. Successful pitches should focus on issues, trends, personalities, and events affecting Jewish, Israeli, and Palestinian diaspora communities globally.

The editorial team is particularly interested in stories that explore culture, identity, politics, migration, community dynamics, social movements, and emerging issues impacting diaspora populations. Writers are encouraged to bring fresh perspectives, strong reporting, and compelling narratives that have not been widely covered elsewhere.

Examples of stories published in this section include features on antisemitism, Palestinian identity, political campaigns, cultural controversies, immigration, and community developments around the world.

Haaretz is not seeking:

• Q&As
• Opinion pieces
• Breaking news reports

When pitching, include:

• “PITCH” in the email subject line
• Proposed word count
• Estimated reporting timeline or deadline
• Why you are the best person to report the story

Before submitting, writers should review recent articles in the Jewish World section and conduct a search to ensure the topic has not already been covered.

Rates for reported features start at $250–$350 USD and may be negotiated for stories requiring extensive reporting or travel.
