Government Communications calls on journalists to enter 2024 SADC Media Awards Competition

The South African media is invited to submit their entries for the 2024 SADC Media Awards competition in the four categories namely; Photo, Print, Television and Radio Journalism. The SADC Media Awards are open to journalists from the SADC Member States. The SADC Media Awards were established in 1996 to recognise best media work in disseminating information on SADC to support the process of regional co-operation and integration in the region.

To promote regional integration and cooperation (cross-border issues), the awards aim to recognise excellence in journalism in the area of print, photo, television, radio as well as to encourage media practitioners in member states to cover issues pertaining to the region.

Journalists who wish to enter the competition can access more information about the competition from the www.sadc.int and www.gcis.gov.za websites.
