Отворен конкурс за награду „Пиаца гранде“ за новинаре који прате религију
Међународна федерација новинара који прате религију (IARJ) расписала је конкурс за награду „Пиаца гранде“ за религијско новинарство. Рок за пријаву је 15. април у 11 сати по гриничком средњем времену.
Applications are open for the second edition of the Piazza Grande Religion Journalism Award, launched by the International Association of Religion Journalists (IARJ) with the support of Fondazione per le Scienze Religiose Giovanni XXIII (FSCIRE).
The prize was first launched in 2019 to honour and promote the work of journalists covering religion and spirituality in both mainstream and confessional media – newspapers, magazines or news websites – that publish regularly in Europe and the countries surrounding the Mediterranean basin.
“The IARJ is committed to promoting best practices in the field of religion journalism, and to extending our network of highly skilled reporters who understand the nuances and stories of faith,” says Peggy Fletcher Stack, the IARJ’s executive director.
“In 2019, our first Piazza Grande Prize attracted dozens of entries, with diverse and thoughtful writing from many European and Mediterranean countries.
With this contest, we hope to further showcase journalistic excellence in this crucial field.”
Italian journalist Federica Tourn was awarded the first Piazza Grande Award for Dio dietro le sbarre-God behind bars (with photos by Isabella Beatrice De Maddalena), published by Catholic magazine Jesus in July 2019.
In its first edition, the award received entries from journalists based in countries including Austria, Bosnia-Herzegovina, Italy, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Israel, Portugal, Serbia, Spain, Tunisia, Turkey, Ukraine and United Kingdom.
