Journalists giving a greater profile to women’s equality issues are welcome to apply for The Landsberg Award, presented by The Canadian Journalism Foundation in association with the Canadian Women’s Foundation.
This new award will celebrate a journalist who is raising awareness about women’s equality issues in Canada and serve to inspire an increase in the media coverage and voice of women in Canada.
The award is named after Michele Landsberg (photo) —award-winning Canadian journalist, author, social activist and feminist—to acknowledge the tremendous impact she has had as an advocate and role model for all women in Canada.
Working journalists (employed or freelance) doing exceptional research, analysis and writing through a gender lens about women’s equality issues in Canada are eligible to apply. The award recipient will receive a $5,000 prize from the Canadian Women’s Foundation.
Please take a look at award details and apply online.
Deadline for Applications: April 4, 2014.
