Call for Applications: Gender and Intersectional Justice Award in 
Journalism and Communication Studies in Honor of Lina Ben Mhenni

On today’s International Press Freedom Day, the AREACORE network 
(Arab-European Association for Media and Communication Researchers) is 
pleased to announce the third edition of the Gender and Intersectional 
Justice Award in honor of Lina Ben Mhenni.

This call for applications seeks to honor Lina Ben Mhenni's commitment 
and legacy as a blogger, activist, and scholar, and to serve as a 
starting point for developing different readings of Ben Mhenni's 
contribution to justice.

The award is intended to recognize projects in media and communication 
studies and journalism studies that reflect her commitment and point to 
directions in which her all-too-brief life may lead us in the future.

We are therefore calling for graduation projects that address topics 
related to her work including, but not limited to:

- human rights and freedom of the press

- media and democratization

- gender and intersectional justice

- journalism and peace studies

- social mobilizations

Modalities:

The call is open to all undergraduate and graduate students in the field 
of media and communication studies and journalism studies from all types 
of higher education institutions in the Middle East and North Africa.

All projects that have been created in the context of seminars and have 
been submitted and evaluated at a higher education institution since 
03.05.2022 onward can be submitted in English, Arabic or French.

The project must be submitted to the committee at 
(areacore /at/ polsoz.fu-berlin.de), stating the name, university, and listing 
research reports and projects.

Two award categories are distinguished, covering BA and MA degree programs:
