One World Media Awards

The One World Media Awards 2025 celebrate underreported stories from around the world. They champion stories that demonstrate originality, creativity, and the potential to catalyze change.
 
All entries must highlight underreported stories or issues, or explore new angles on familiar topics. Entries should focus on stories, topics or issues in, about or related to low- and middle-income countries and peoples across the global south.
 
They are particularly looking at how a story is told: Does it amplify lesser heard voices? Does the story inspire change? Does it challenge misconceptions or stereotypes?
 

Entries will be evaluated based on the overall merit of the piece, with an emphasis on relevance, originality, substance and accuracy, impact and reach, and diversity of coverage.
