DWU seeks nominees for media award

JOURNALISTS, media and other organisations have been invited to submit nominations for the Divine Word University Communication and Development award.
The award will be presented as part of the World Media Freedom Day celebrations on May 3 at the university in Madang.
The award has, until recently, been presented annually in recognition of good journalism practices.
This year, the emphasis has shifted to the wider area of communication and development and how journalists, media and civil society groups report development issues.
The award is open to individuals and organisations, whether they are, or were at the time of publication, working in the print media, radio, television or some other medium.
The competition is also open to organisations and individuals involved in information-related activities such as NGOs and community groups.
The judges will be looking for a meticulously written news report, feature, or other writing (special publications, series of articles), or well produced audio/visual programmes that focus on development issues and has had a significant impact on a community or the country.
They will acknowledge quality reporting and writing, attention to detail, accuracy, variety of sources, originality of coverage, creativity, new information and insights into development issues.
