Legatum Institute | The 2019 Legatum Institute Courage in Journalism Award @legatuminstitute | Uploaded April 2019 | Updated October 2024, 12 hours ago.
The Legatum Institute founded this award last year following the death of Daphne Caruana Galizia, the widely-respected Maltese journalist who was killed by a car bomb in October 2017. Following Daphne’s death, and in discussion with the Caruana Galizia family, we decided to create this award to honour her legacy and to shine a light on the very real dangers facing journalists working in many countries around the world.
For this year’s Award, our research uncovered a total of 70 journalists who were killed during the time period we looked at (July 2017 to September 2018). These 70 were put forward for consideration for this award. The 70 journalists are profiled in the document available via the link below.
