This award aims to recognise excellence in international reporting, in any medium and across any subject area. It is a national award, designed to recognise the particular challenges that come with battling time zones as well as war zones, language barriers, and changing political landscapes. 

Entries will be judged on originality, impact, quality of production/writing and use of platform. Judging will consider the complexity of delivering the piece to deadline in challenging conditions. 

Entrants need to provide one primary piece of work, with the option of up to two further supporting pieces.
