Details of European Press Prize Application Form
Applications are open for the European Press Prize 2022 for Excellence in Journalism. Quality journalism is of vital importance to healthy democracies, especially in a time when information is omnipresent. Unfortunately, because of a transforming, pressured market and fragile press freedom – quality has become increasingly difficult to maintain.
To help counter the effects of these transformations was one of the reasons the European Press Prize was envisioned. Formed by seven independent European foundations with strong media connections, all of which count excellence and public service as part of their collective challenge. The aim is simple: to salute and encourage journalism of the highest quality wherever it can be found on the continent of Europe. Journalists from all 47 countries of Europe as defined by the Council of Europe are eligible to enter their work.
Categories
The European Press Prize is awarded in four different categories:
- The Investigative Reporting Award: For the individual or team effort which has done most to unearth facts that the public – and society – has a right to know;
- The Distinguished Reporting Award:Â For the best reportage and feature writing illuminating vital issues at home and abroad;
- The Opinion Award:Â For the commentator, columnist or editor whose work has made a decisive impact;
- The Innovation Award: For the idea – presentational, technical or in terms of editorial techniques – that has made a clear contribution to journalism’s future;
- The Special Prize:Â From 2013, the judges will be empowered to award a special prize for particular excellence in editing or any other discipline, including reporting, feature write and advocacy.
Award
- Each award is for 10,000 Euros, to be spent wherever possible on a personal project that may, in turn, enrich the practice of journalism.
Eligibility
- Any journalist that works in or is from any of the 47 countries of the Council of Europe is eligible to compete in the European Press Prize.
- Journalists working in Europe and journalists writing for a European media organisation or blog can submit their work.
Rules
