The ReportHer Awards is dedicated to celebrating media organisations that prioritise women’s representation, amplify women’s voices and demonstrate a sustained commitment to gender balance in newsroom culture and editorial.

As the media continues to shape public perception and influence societal attitudes, the ReportHer Awards highlight the essential role journalists and media organizations play in advancing gender inclusion.

Female Leadership Representation – Recognising media organisations that actively promote and portray women in leadership roles across sectors, celebrating their achievements and contributions.

Inclusive Advocacy & Reportage – Honouring newsrooms committed to fair, balanced, and inclusive storytelling that advances women’s rights and centres women’s voices.

Pro-Women Workplace Policy – Celebrating organisations that implement and sustain policies that foster gender equity, workplace safety, and professional development opportunities for women.

GBV Reporting – Commending exceptional journalism that exposes, analyses, and provides solution-driven coverage of gender-based violence, supporting advocacy and accountability.

Women Radio 91.7FM and the Wole Soyinka Centre for Investigative Journalism reiterated that the ReportHer Awards serves not only as a platform for recognition but also as a strategic driver for systemic change within the Nigerian media sector. By spotlighting organisations leading in gender-sensitive practices, the ReportHer Awards encourages more newsrooms to embrace equitable editorial standards and adopt inclusive workplace policies.
