Applications opened on 1 March for one of the world’s leading journalism awards – the Lorenzo Natali Media Prize. Backed by the European Commission, the prize honours journalists from around the world for their courageous reporting and for their stories about people and the planet that highlight some of today’s biggest challenges and inspiring solutions that address them. To mark the launch of the 2021 edition, International Partnerships Commissioner Jutta Urpilainen said: “The European Union stands for freedom of expression, in Europe and around the world. Through the Lorenzo Natali Media Prize, we recognise journalists who have dared, often at great personal risk, to report the facts and tell the stories shedding light on issues like injustice, inequality, and environmental degradation. Stories that showcase the inspiring ways in which people are responding. If you are a journalist who has told just this story in the past year, I encourage you to apply.”
The closing date for entries is 19 April 2021. The winners will be awarded with €10,000. For more details, please consult the press release and the Lorenzo Natali Media Prize website.
