Journalism Excellence Awards – Ethical reporting on Roma and fight against racism and antigypsyism through the media
The Awards aim to promote a positive image of Roma and marginalised communities in the media, especially with regard to women and children. It contributes directly to the European objectives of promoting stereotype-free image and positive examples in order to drive a change in people’s perception.
We are launching a call for applications from the media sphere (print media, TV media, photographers, reporters, journalists, etc.) in all the Council of Europe (CoE) member states.
Five categories will be evaluated and awarded a prize of €2000 at the Awards ceremony to be held in Strasbourg on 18 June 2024:
- Photojournalism Award
- Investigative Journalism Award
- Interview Award
- Global event Award
- Young Journalists Award
