In Berlin, Civis handed out the 30th annual European Media Awards, which are dedicated to integration and cultural diversity in the electronic media.
Among almost 800 entries -- television reports, programs, and films --, a report by RTV Slovenia’s Balkans correspondent Boštjan Anžin received the Second Prize in the Short Programs category.
His report about the intolerable conditions faced by refugees in Belgrade in the depths of winter was first aired on the program Odmevi on January 10, 2017. The feature placed second only to a report by Germany’s public broadcaster.
The awards ceremony, which was carried live by German public television, took place in the Great Chamber of the German Foreign Ministry.
