SADC Media Awards deadline extended

PRETORIA: The deadline for entries for the Southern African Development Community (SADC) Media Awards for South Africa has been extended to 30 April 2013.

8 Apr 2013

This, according to the organisers, is to allow more South African media to take part in the Awards that were officially launched by Deputy Minister of Performance, Monitoring and Evaluation, Obed Bapela, last month.

Members of the media are called to submit their entries on developmental cross-border stories published between January and December 2012.

The awards are aimed at recognising excellence in journalism in the area of print, photo, television and radio. They also serve 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.
