The European Investment Bank (EIB) has renewed its partnership with One World Media (OWM) to shine a light on under-reported stories from around the world that challenge stereotypes, change perceptions and promote cross-cultural interaction and understanding.
The EIB and One World Media are co-sponsoring the award to recognise excellence in media coverage of stories in which girls and women offer solutions to overcome challenges. The award recognises media outlets, including broadcast, digital, audio, film and print, that explore “women’s solutions in the global south”.
Reporting can feature stories of women who have successfully contributed to solutions to issues facing women and society at large: solutions to improve financial and economic accessibility, solutions to combat the effects of climate change and protect the environment, solutions that increase access to education and health care, or generally empower women and girls.
One World Media is a non-profit organisation founded over 30 years ago by a group of journalists who realised at the time that international reporting was limited and often reinforced stereotypes. Since then, One World Media has supported journalists and filmmakers around the world to tell stories that inform and unite us all.
