Applications are open for the One Young World Journalist of the Year Award 2025. The One Young World Journalist of the Year Award was created in 2020 to identify and promote five of the world’s most impactful journalists changing how stories are reported and having a positive global impact.
In an age of mass information and misinformation, the role of journalists is more important than ever. Our societies rely on the core values of journalism – truthfulness and objectivity – to stay informed and shape opinions. One Young World believes that the next generation of young journalists are paramount to creating powerful and meaningful change, providing the essential means to ensure freedom of speech and defence of rights are justly upheld in all regions worldwide.
The award will be presented to three winners at the One Young World Summit in Munich, Germany, which takes place from 3-6 November 2025.
