Outstanding journalistic work

Awards for Journalists since 1983

The Franco-German Journalism Prize (FGJP) has been awarded every year since 1983 to authors whose outstanding journalistic work contributes to a better understanding of Franco-German and European relations. 

From 2022, it will be awarded in the following categories across the media: News Formats, Documentation, Investigation, and the Special Jury Prize. A Young Talent Prize is furthermore awarded to one of the entries. The Great Franco-German Media Prize serves to honour a personality or organization that has rendered outstanding services to Franco-German and European unification. The award ceremony is alternately held in Paris and Berlin and marks a high point in the Franco-German exchange. The Franco-German Journalism Prize (FGJP) is endowed with € 30,000 altogether.
