2 evidence checks from 1 unique source

Last checked: 3/30/2026

The source explicitly states that the fifth cohort (2025-2026) consists of 'eight journalists and researchers,' not 'up to 6' as claimed. This is a direct contradiction regarding the number of fellows. The source also does not mention the EUR 7,400 figure per fellow, making that aspect unverifiable, but the cohort size is clearly contradicted by the source text which states eight fellows were welcomed.
