IPI and IMS are proud to announce the call for nominations for this year’s World Press Freedom Hero Award and Free Media Pioneer Award
As threats to the free press grow globally, it’s never been more important to honour courage and resilience in journalism.
The International Press Institute (IPI) and International Media Support (IMS) are proud to announce the call for nominations for this year’s World Press Freedom Hero Award and Free Media Pioneer Award.
Both awards will be presented during a special ceremony at IPI’s 2025 World Congress, which will take place October 23 to 25 in Vienna. The Congress will also mark IPI’s 75th anniversary – a milestone occasion that will also highlight past heroes in journalism and press freedom.
Nominations for this year’s awards must be received by April 30, 2025 (23:59 CEST). As in previous years, award winners will be selected by a global expert jury.
