SAVE THE CHILDREN’S GLOBAL MEDIA AWARDS 2025 OPENS FOR ENTRIES
 
LONDON/GENEVA, 20 May 2025 – Save the Children has launched its second annual Global Media Awards, a prestigious initiative dedicated to honouring exceptional journalism that champions the rights of children worldwide.
 
Save the Children held its inaugural Global Media Awards in 2024  to commemorate the 100th anniversary of the League of Nations’ adoption of the Declaration of the Rights of the Child – a milestone achievement spearheaded by Save the Children's founder, Eglantyne Jebb.
 
Now in its second year, Save the Children’s Global Media Awards 2025 continue to honour professional journalists from around the world whose storytelling has played a pivotal role in uncovering and highlighting critical issues affecting children, while amplifying their voices and advocating for their rights.  
 
“Behind every powerful story about children’s rights is a journalist who chose to listen, investigate, and amplify the voices of children in an effort to drive positive change. These awards are our way of celebrating that courage and commitment,” said Belinda Goldsmith, head of the Global Media Unit at Save the Children. “At a time when children face increasing risks around the world, the role of the media in holding those responsible for child rights violations accountable—and amplifying children’s voices—has never been more vital.”
This year’s competition features four distinct categories:
  • Written News (print and online)
  • Broadcast
  • Radio/Podcast
  • Photography
Eligible entries must have been published or broadcast for the first time between 31 August 2024 and 1 July 2025. Submissions will close on 20 July 2025 at 11:59 PM BST.
An independent jury of judges will review the shortlisted submissions to decide the winners.
  • Entries can now be submitted at: savemediaawards.com 
 
The winners of the Save the Children Global Media Awards 2025 will be announced on 20 November which is World Children’s Day. They will receive a personalised certificate and an invitation to attend a Save the Children international press trip or programme visit. Additionally, all shortlisted finalists will be awarded personalised certificates in recognition of their outstanding contributions.

The FPA joins with colleagues across the world in commemorating World Press Freedom Day. Sadly there are few grounds for celebration: colleagues from Hong Kong finish punitive sentences, colleagues from Gaza are fatally targeted, and the mangled body of one of our Ukrainian colleagues is returned. Governments across even self-proclaimed democracies are harassing the press with police actions and with libel litigation designed to suppress free speech. They are joined by media monopolies who use their money to silence reportage they find inconvenient.
The FPA salutes all colleagues who stand up and “file truth to power,” and who are prepared to challenge the powerful whether they be proprietors, politicians or lobby groups. And we mourn our colleagues who have aid the ultimate price for their press cards.
