Eastern Europe Journalism Award Contest 2006 The twelfth Annual Eastern Europe Journalism Award is going to be awarded on 5th March 2006 by the campaign “Hoffnung für Osteuropa” (Hope for Eastern Europe) in cooperation with the Protestant Church in Germany, the Institute of Journalism of the University Dortmund and the „Gustav-Adolf-Werk“. This year’s contest deals with the topic „Border experiences“. Since the collapse of the socialistic system the borders towards and within Eastern Europe have changed. The Iron Curtain between East and West has fallen, other borders like those of the European Union have shifted, but above all new borders were added in the area of the former Soviet Union and through the Balkans. For the people in Eastern Europe the formation of new borders is linked with a lot of different experiences. The participants in the Eastern Europe Journalism Award are asked to write about these varied experiences. “Border experiences”, the topic of this year’s contest does not only refer to the borders between two countries, but also to borders in the broader sense, thus experiences and circumstances of people who have reached their limits in terms of physical and psychological borders. The contributions may as well deal with borders that are drawn in one’s mind due to prejudices and stereotypes as of how to overcome these borders. No geographical borders are set to the experiences portrayed by the participating Eastern European Journalists. The described experiences may have been gained all over the world, for instance in Western Europe. Entry Requirements The contributions are to be submitted in the original edition and in a German translation.
