The Daphne Caruana Galizia Prize for Journalism annually awards outstanding journalism promoting EU values, with a focus on human rights and press freedom. The €20,000 prize is bestowed mid-October in honor of Daphne's legacy. The European Parliament underscores the critical role of investigative journalism in defending democracy and free speech, noting ongoing threats to media freedom. Submissions are open to all professional journalists in the EU until July 31. The Prize serves as a tribute to courageous truth-telling and commitment to safeguarding essential democratic principles.
