World Hunger Year Invites Entries for Harry Chapin Media Awards
Deadline: February 3, 2005

A program of World Hunger Year, the Harry Chapin Media Awards are designed to encourage the media to "tell the story of hunger and poverty."

The awards honor print and electronic media for outstanding coverage that positively impacts hunger, poverty, and self-reliance. The awards also honor work that focuses on the causes of hunger and poverty and the forces creating self-reliance. This includes work on economic inequality and insecurity, unemployment homelessness, domestic and international policies and their reform, community empowerment, sustainable development, food production, agriculture, nutrition, and the struggle for land. The awards include cash prizes of $1,000 to $2,500.

The awards program includes six media categories: newspaper; magazines, broadcast, radio, photojournalism, and books. All entries for the 2004 Media Awards must have appeared in the media between January 1 and December 31, 2004. International entries must be submitted in English.
