The organisation would like to see the following entries:

• Data collection and analysis in the service of journalism, ideally shining a light on facts and issues of public interest that would otherwise not be known;
• Storytelling and engagement with strong visual and interactive elements of (ideally) that kind of reporting;
• Public service, either in reporting/analysis of key issues or in terms of empowering communities to discover important information for themselves;
• Innovative ideas that will likely move the field forward.

Winning participants will be flown to Perugia, Italy to attend and take part in the International Journalism Festival 2023.
