War correspondents invited to apply for Bayeux-Calvados Awards
War correspondents and photographers from all over the world are invited to apply for the Bayeux-Calvados Awards for War Correspondents, which honour journalists who risk their lives in the world's hot spots to cover the news. The deadline for applications is 6 June 2011.
The prize carries five cash awards of 7,000 Euros (US$10,100) each in the categories of television, radio, print, photography, and new this year: web journalism.
Four special awards, worth 3,000 to 3,800 Euros (US$4,300-$5,500) each, are also up for grabs, including a Young Reporter Prize for journalists 28 and under.
The entry should report on a conflict and its consequences for the civil population, or an event concerning the defence of press freedom and democracy.
Winners will be announced at a ceremony in Bayeux, France, in October.
