About:
Established in 2012, the EU Prize for Journalism is an annual event that encourages professionalism and ethical conduct in Georgian journalism. The rules of the EU Prize for Journalism are inspired by the principles of the Georgian Charter of Journalistic Ethics.
The EUMM Special Prize for Peace Journalism will not be a category in this year’s Journalism Prize. The EU Monitoring Mission in Georgia (EUMM) is shifting its focus towards capacity-building for emerging journalists in conflict-sensitive reporting. Through newly developed projects, especially targeting journalism students, EUMM will promote reporting that fosters confidence-building and peace among communities, one of the priorities of the Mission in line with its mandate.
