SAVE the Children is seeking entries to its Global Media Awards.
The awards aim to celebrate excellence in journalism for child rights in honour of the centennial year since the first Declaration of the Rights of the Child.
The organisers say, “Storytelling that has played a pivotal role in exposing child rights issues can be entered into two categories: local/regional media and international outlets/wires”.
Journalists around the world who cover children’s rights can enter a competition.
Entries must be original and published/broadcast in a national, regional or international media outlet between July 31, 2023 and August 1, 2024. Entries are accepted in all mediums, including print, broadcast, photography and digital.
Winners will receive a trophy and personalised certificate, and be invited to attend a Save the Children international press trip or programme visit.
The deadline for the submission of application is August 31, 2024. Interested applicants can apply here.
