Entries open for Taco Kuiper Awards
The winner will receive a R200 000 cash prize and the runner-up, R100 000 at the award ceremony taking place on 30 March. In addition, Taco Kuiper Grants are available to encourage investigative journalism in South African print media.
Promotion of investigative journalism
Taco Kuiper was a South African publisher who left a significant part of his estate to be used for the promotion of investigative journalism. His Valley Trust has partnered with Wits Journalism to organise the award and distribute grants to promote investigative journalism.
Last year's winners were the Sunday Times duo Mzilikazi wa Afrika and Stephan Hofstatter for their scoop on Police Commissioner General Bheki Cele and the SAPS building lease last year. Runner-up was Sipho Masondo from The Times for his breaking story on acid mine drainage.
