The June Andrews Award for Women’s Leadership in Media honours women who are making an outstanding journalistic contribution to gender equality and the visibility of women in society – both in Australia and on a global scale.
It celebrates reporting that demonstrates notable innovation, enterprise or courage in raising awareness of women’s experiences and perspectives, and reflects the significance of media coverage in altering perceptions, challenging stereotypes and fighting misinformation.
Submissions are open to women working in both mainstream or alternative media. Entries may be pieces by individuals or collaborative projects.
Eligibility for the June Andrews Award for Women’s Leadership in Media is based on independent acts of journalism, free from any commercial or corporate interests.
Entries may be a single piece or a body of work of up to three pieces. All forms of media are accepted. All entries must have been published or broadcast and available in Australia between April 27, 2023 and April 15, 2024.
