Each year, the International Center for Journalists honors outstanding colleagues with the ICFJ Knight International Journalism Award at our Tribute to Journalists. We are now seeking nominees whose pioneering coverage or media innovations have made an impact on the lives of people in their countries or regions.
In 2023, our ICFJ Knight Award winners were Riad Kobaissi, a dogged investigative journalist and TV presenter in Lebanon who bravely exposes corruption at the highest levels of government, and Mariam Ouédraogo, whose fearless reports have shown the devastating impact of war on civilians in conflict-torn Burkina Faso. Learn more about past awardees here.
The award reflects the mission of ICFJ's Knight Fellowships. The fellowships, which are supported by the John S. and James L. Knight Foundation, spread news innovation to better engage communities and improve lives.
International Center for Journalists is a non-profit, professional organization located in Washington, D.C., United States, that promotes journalism worldwide. Since 1984, the International Center for Journalists has worked directly with more than 70,000 journalists from 180 countries over 27 years.
