2022 HUMAN RIGHTS PRESS AWARDS: Now Open for Entries

We are delighted to announce that the Human Rights Press Awards, Asia’s most prestigious honours that recognise outstanding human rights reporting, have returned and are now open for entries. The deadline is February 1, 2022 (11:59 PM, HKT).

The Human Rights Press Awards, now in their 26th year, are organised by the Foreign Correspondents’ Club Hong Kong.

Showcasing this work has become more important than ever as governments around the region step up threats to basic freedoms since the pandemic broke out. This has ranged from locking up journalists, carrying out arbitrary detentions to silencing political opponents.

Submissions must have been reporting about the Asia region and been published or broadcast during the 2021 calendar year. Entries must be in either English or Chinese.

Categories include Breaking News, Feature, Multimedia, Video and Photography. Please go to the website for more details.

Each entry must cite the article of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights that the work seeks to address. This landmark document sets out the inalienable rights to which every person is entitled. The full text is available here: https://www.un.org/en/universal-declaration-human-rights/index.html

Please mark your calendars and be ready to submit your work!

The online entry form will be open on January 1, 2022 at:

亞洲矚目的新聞界盛事、二零二二年人權新聞獎於2022年1月1日起接受報名，誠邀新聞工作者踴躍參與，截止日期為2022年2月1日（香港時間23:59）。

人權新聞獎由香港外國記者會主辦，以表彰亞洲區的卓越人權新聞報道，今年已是第二十六屆。獎項旨在增加公眾對人類基本權利尊重，並令大眾關注任何對這些權利之威脅。

自新冠疫情爆發以來，區內多個政府對基本人權自由之侵害不斷加劇，以防控疫情為由打壓言論自由、集會自由等事件時有發生，令舉辦此獎項更顯重要。

參選作品必須為亞洲區的人權議題採訪報道，並於二零二一年內刊出或公開播放。參賽作品須以中文或英文提交，今屆參賽類別包括：突發新聞、特寫、多媒體、錄像及攝影。詳情請瀏覽人權新聞獎官方網站。

參加者必須註明參選作品與《世界人權宣言》中哪一條人權宣言相關。《世界人權宣言》全文：https://www.un.org/en/universal-declaration-human-rights/index.html
