Professor Robert Pinker Receives Astor Award
The Commonwealth Press Union Media Trust has presented the 2020 Astor Award to Professor Robert Pinker for his outstanding contribution to press freedom across the Commonwealth.
The Astor Award is one of the most prestigious – and one of the oldest – press freedom awards in the world. First presented over 50 years ago in 1970, previous winners represent a remarkable and distinguished cross-section of individuals who have made an enormous contribution to the media in the Commonwealth, particularly in the field of press freedom. 
Since 1970 winners have included figures such as Mabel Strickland, Lyle Turnbull, Derek Ingram, Gilbert Ahnee, Kuldip Nayar and (posthumously) Daphne Caruana Galizia. Most recently the Award has been made to a number of organisations including the Human Rights Network for Journalists in Uganda and the Pakistan Press Foundation.  ....
