Journalists of any nationality from print, Web, photo, TV or radio can apply.

Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit, the Forum of Environmental Journalists in India and The Third Pole are seeking entries from journalists reporting on environmental issues in India.

The entries should deal with the protection and management of air, water, soil and other resources. The entries can also relate to how cities and industries are coping with climate change. Entries with positive examples, opportunities and solutions are encouraged and should be clearly associated to India.

The entries should have been published/broadcast between July 1, 2012 and June 30, 2013, and must be accompanied by an endorsement letter from the editor/news editor of the media house in which the respective report has been published. Entries in languages other than English should be accompanied by an English summary of about 500 words.

There will be a first and second prize in each of the five categories — print, web, photo, TV and radio. The first prize in each category is $50,000 Indian Rupees (US$862) and the second prize is $30,000 Indian Rupees (US$516).

The winner in the print media category will participate in a two-week workshop on advanced environmental reporting, organized by Deutsche Welle Academy in Warsaw.

The deadline is June 30.
