German-Polish Media Days
15th German-Polish Journalist Award Accepting Applications
The next German-Polish Media Days will be held from May 14 to May 16, 2012, in Schwerin, Germany. This event is also the stage of the 15th German-Polish Journalist Award ceremony, which is now accepting applications. The jury is looking for journalism that enhances both Germans’ and Poles’ knowledge of one another and leads to a better understanding of politics, business, science, culture, and daily life in the respective neighboring country.
German and Polish journalists, publishing companies, and broadcasting corporations can submit articles and reports that were first published or broadcast between January 1 and December 31, 2011. The award, which has a value of 5,000 euros, is being presented in the categories Print, Radio, and Television – articles published on the Internet will also be taken into consideration, however. The jury of experts comprises journalists from both countries who have proven to be well-versed in German–Polish issues. On the German side, this includes the former ZEIT writer Helga Hirsch, the manager of the Mitteldeutscher Rundfunk (Central German Broadcasting) studio in Bautzen, Bogna Koreng, as well as Thomas Rautenberg, a radio journalist at Rundfunk Berlin-Brandenburg (Berlin-Brandenburg Broadcasting).
The Robert Bosch Stiftung, the Foundation for German-Polish Cooperation, and the six federal German states and Polish voivodeships (administrative subdivisions of Poland) that border each other are funding and presenting the award.
The award winners will be announced on May 15, 2012, during the German-Polish Media Days in Schwerin, Germany. Please send applications to the office of the State Chancellery of Brandenburg (Staatskanzlei des Landes Brandenburg). Applications must be received by January 15, 2012. Complete information, application requirements, and application forms can be found at www.medientage.org
The 2012 German-Polish Media Days will be the fifth time this event has been held. The event offers a professional platform for journalists and media experts from Poland and Germany to exchange ideas and opinions and meet with each other personally. In addition, high-caliber experts will reflect upon and debate current issues and topics related to media policy in the context of the German–Polish relationship in panel and forum discussions. The upcoming event is being hosted by the German state of Mecklenburg-West Pomerania.
