19 April 2010
UNICEF's Regional Media Award 2010
(Note: We have yet to find announcement for this regional award specifically for Asia. We will post updates soon.)

The media award, which was launched in 2008 and has a different theme each year, celebrates the efforts of media professionals who take a special interest in children’s issues and relay them to the public.

This year’s theme was chosen to commemorate the 20th anniversary of the Convention on the Rights of the Child. The 2010 awards will also include a new photography category in addition to the television, radio, print and electronic media categories.

All interested individuals should contact UNICEF’s local offices before 20 August 2010, which is the deadline for receiving applications. Entries are accepted in English, French and Arabic.

Winners will be announced during UNICEF’s Sixth Regional Conference on the Rights of the Child, which will be held in Egypt this fall.
