Madrid, Jun 9 (EFE).- The King of Spain International Journalism Prizes on Wednesday recognized important coverage of social movements across Latin America as well as persistent inequality and human rights issues within the context of the global Covid-19 pandemic.
Once again the award ceremony presided over by King Felipe VI got underway in Madrid’s Casa America with strict health and safety protocols, reducing the number of attendees from 120 to 80 in order to maintain social distancing.
Created by Spain’s news agency EFE and the country’s agency for international cooperation and development (AECID) in 1983, the annual media awards recognize some of the leading work done by Spanish and Portuguese-speaking journalists.
