The deadline for entries for the South African Democratic Community (SADC) Media Awards for South Africa has been extended to 30 April 2013. This is to allow more South African media to take part in the Awards that were officially launched by the Deputy Minister of Performance, Monitoring and Evaluation last month.
Members of the media are once more called to submit their entries on developmental cross-border stories published between January and December 2012. 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 SADC region.
The competition also consists of the Water Media Awards which are aimed at recognising stories that promote Integrated Water Resource Management (IWRM) in the SADC region. The competition has four categories in print, photojournalism, television and radio.
