"They
are the awards the media really want to win, a unique set of awards
that recognise commitment, originality and verve"

 The
One World Media Awards
is one of the
foremost
Awards events in the UK. It rewards
excellence in media coverage on the vital issues of international development. The awards
recognise the unique role of journalists and filmmakers in bridging
the divide between different societies, and communicating the
breadth of social, political and cultural experiences across the
globe.
The categories incorporate documentary film, radio programmes,
print journalism and online media. As well as rewarding the best in
journalism based in developed countries, there is also a category
for community media, which features applicants from various
countries in the developing world.
In the 20 years since its
inception it has developed into a mainstream ceremony, recognised
and supported throughout the media industry. Find out more on the
