The Categories Print, Online, Cross media and AI
\n<\/strong><\/h2>\n

The European Newspaper Award has print and online categories. There are also main prizes and Awards of Excellence. Throughout this Call for Entries, we have compiled examples of award winners from all categories. This should make it easier for participants to choose their own work. The jury also reserves the right to move work to other categories, as each piece of work should be given the best opportunity to be judged.<\/p>\n

What changes are there compared to last year?<\/strong><\/h3>\n

We have streamlined and slightly reduced the number of categories.<\/p>\n

Sorting into categories<\/strong>

\nStudent work can be entered in all categories.<\/p>\n

Local pages<\/strong>
\nLocal pages can participate in all categories. There is no separate category for them.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[132],"tags":[133,134,135,138,137],"class_list":["post-9512","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-28-call-for-entries","tag-award-of-excellence","tag-european-newspaper-award","tag-european-newspaper-of-the-year","tag-judges-special-recognition-2","tag-newspaper-design"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/staging.newspaperaward.org\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/9512","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/staging.newspaperaward.org\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/staging.newspaperaward.org\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/staging.newspaperaward.org\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/staging.newspaperaward.org\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=9512"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/staging.newspaperaward.org\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/9512\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":9562,"href":"https:\/\/staging.newspaperaward.org\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/9512\/revisions\/9562"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/staging.newspaperaward.org\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=9512"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/staging.newspaperaward.org\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=9512"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/staging.newspaperaward.org\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=9512"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
