Standard Bank Sikuvile Awards 2019: Entries open 1 June
Entries to the Standard Bank Sikuvile Journalism Awards are set to open on 1 June and close on 15 July, with the virtual awards ceremony tentatively scheduled for 15 October. The awards recognise journalists for excellence in journalism in 14 categories as well as rewards the South African Story of the Year, Journalist of the Year, Upcoming/Rising Star of the Year and the Lifetime Achiever Award - the Allan Kirkland Soga Achievement Award.
Freelance journalists can enter in any of the categories at no charge, while Publisher Support Services (PSS) members will have to pay a discounted entry fee of R80. A bursary for mid-career journalists awarded will be introduced to empower mid-career journalists and editorial executives with at least five years' experience who are determined to become future newsroom leaders.
All the awards winners will receive a R15,000 prize money, a trophy and a certificate.
