15th Wole Soyinka Award For Investigative Reporting
The Wole Soyinka Centre for Investigative Journalism (WSCIJ) invites entries for its annual award for investigative reporting online for the first time and will reward works that explore the intersection between Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and Covid19.
The choice of focus area for the 15th edition of the award programme is due to the fact that Covid19 has exacerbated problems of poverty, hunger, education, health and inequalities between female and male persons among others, that Nigeria faces as the country marks its 60th independence anniversary.
