Journalists from Africa, the Arab world and the Middle East, Asia and the Pacific, Latin America and the Caribbean, as well as Europe reporting on development and poverty eradication could win big in the Lorenzo Natali Media Prize now accepting entries.
The European Commission, which is currently running the 2015 edition, has said that the prize is part of the 2015 European Year for Development.
The prize rewards outstanding contributions of 10 amateur and professional journalists. All of them selected by an independent grand jury will receive trophies and cash prizes of 5,000 euros and will be considered for the 5,000 euros grand prize during an award ceremony in Brussels in December 2015.
Any article and report published (print or online) or broadcast (radio or television) between September 1, 2014 and August 31, 2015 can be submitted until August 31, 2015 (deadline) via an online application form.
