The Council of Europe just announced the results of the “Europe is MORE than you think Award” which took place from 1 September to 1 December 2009. Over 200 candidates in 4 categories (photography, video journalism, print and radio journalism) took part in the competition. Organised jointly by the Council of Europe and the region’s largest network of young media-creators ‘’European Youth Press’’, the competition invited young journalists from all over the continent to look beyond the headlines and capture the Europe which, all too often, goes unnoticed. The winners of the award are: - Emilian Dechev of Sofia, Bulgaria, for her photograph “Reality vs. Dreams” - Méabh Mc Mahon of Brussels, Belgium, for the video report “The Poles in Ireland” The four winners will be invited to attend the January 2010 session of the Parliamentary Assembly to see the workings of Europe’s oldest intergovernmental organisation and report on the event. They will be presented with their certificates in a ceremony to be held on Wednesday 27th January at 17h30 in room 9 of the Palais de l’Europe in Strasbourg.
