AMIC ASIA COMMUNICATION AWARD 2014
Honouring excellence in media and communication

Nominations are now being accepted for the AMIC Asia Communication Award 2014.
This prestigious annual Award recognizes outstanding achievement in one or several media and communication fields and categories. Individuals of all nationalities are eligible for the Award, which is given at the discretion of the AMIC Board of Directors. The Award will be presented at the 23rd AMIC international conference in Bangkok, Thailand (9th-12th July, 2014).

An individual will be honoured based on the impact that his or her work has had on Asian media and communication. The contribution can be focused on a single country within Asia, on a region within Asia, or on the whole of Asia. While the Awardee need not be from Asia, preference is accorded to regional actors.

 

Categories

Research—pioneering contributions to the body of media and communication research, such as the launching and completion of major research projects or the development of enduring theoretical approaches in the discipline.

Education—lasting contributions in nurturing successive generations of media, communication or journalism students and scholars.

Institution building—establishment of key communication and media programs, research centres or academic journals.

Excellence in journalism—sustained contributions to public service and the highest journalistic principles.
Others—from time to time the Board may present the AMIC Asia Communication Award to a media practitioner for outstanding commitment and excellence in their field of endeavour.
