Calling aspiring Journalists to rewrite Europe!
Are you fed up with reading the same old Euro crisis articles? The Europe & Me Young Journalist Award is calling young non-professional journalists to write about Europe in a fresh, personal and transnational way! Europeans up to the age of 30 are invited to send in their articles until 15th of November, 2013.
Participants get the chance to win cash prizes, to get published online and to be invited to a journalism workshop in Germany. Submissions can be written on any historical or current European topic as long as it is approached transnationally – thus in a way that makes it directly relevant to two or more European countries. Entries will be assessed by the Europe & Me editorial board, with shortlisted articles then judged by an expert panel of media professionals. The first prize submission will be awarded €500, two runners-up will receive €150 each and their articles will be published online in a special edition of the Europe & Me magazine. All three finalists will be invited to a journalism workshop in Berlin or Hamburg in the spring of 2014.
The Europe & Me Young Journalist Award is supported by the Körber Foundation.
