The Journalistic Award for Human Rights presented three stories–on vaccinations, violence against women, and gender equality in Kosovo’s general elections–with journalism prizes.
Over 20 journalists submitted stories to be considered for awards for journalistic excellence, under the project “OmbudsWatch – Promoting Ombudsperson’s role in Kosovo.” Winners were announced on Friday for the three best pieces of reporting on human rights issues in Kosovo.
The project, organized BIRN Kosovo and the Advocacy Center for Democratic Culture, ACDC, and supported by the Embassy of the Netherlands in Kosovo, aims to highlight journalistic pieces–TV, print, and online media–that address abuses against the rights of minority communities, women’s rights, and LGBT rights.
