2020 Standard Bank Sikuvile Journalism Awards open for entries

The 2020 Standard Bank Sikuvile Journalism Awards are now officially open for entries. The deadline for entries is 15 July and judging will take place from 27 July to 3 August, with the virtual awards ceremony tentatively scheduled for 15 October. This year's judging panel includes Dinesh Balliah, Tyrone August, Liesl Louw-Vaundrum, Neo Ntsoma, Maud Motanyane, Themba Hadebe, Gus Silber, Thabo Leshilo, and new Convener Judge, Lizeka Mda.

Freelance journalists are invited to enter in any of the 14 awards categories at no charge, while Publisher Support Services (PSS) members will have to pay a discounted entry fee of R80. A bursary for mid-career journalists awarded will be introduced to empower mid-career journalists and editorial executives with at least five years' experience who are determined to become future newsroom leaders.

All the awards winners will receive R15,000 prize money, a trophy and a certificate.
