Three winners in each category share a cash prize of CHF 130,000 (Swiss Francs).

Entries are open to professional journalists worldwide, i.e. representatives of the media, professional journalism organizations (unions/associations/societies) and freelance journalists. Self-nominations are allowed. No entry fee.
