For over three decades, the Lorenzo Natali Prize has celebrated excellence in journalism as the EU’s flagship journalism award, commemorating the former Vice-President of the European Commission, Lorenzo Natali, who strongly promoted and furthered European development policies.
Since its establishment in 1992, the Prize has brought stories about important worldwide issues into focus. It has recognised journalists who bring to light stories on the human impact of climate, digital infrastructure, gender equality, human development, jobs, peace, governance and human rights, among other issues, and this year is no different.
Marking the 32nd year of the award, applications for the 2024 Lorenzo Natali Prize will open on 29 May 2024. We encourage all journalists to apply by submitting an eligible story until 30 June 2024 23:59 CEST.
Entering this competition is the perfect opportunity for you to share your story with the world. Let’s go beyond the headlines!
