On Globe Media Excellence Awards

Now on its 5th year, the Globe Media Execellence Awards (GMEA) continues to recognize excellent journalism shown by members of the print, broadcast, online, and social media in Visayas and Mindanao. Globe first launched GMEA in Cebu and Davao in 2012 as part of its advocacy in supporting press freedom. The awards honored media practitioners who demonstrate excellence and professionalism in their field of work.

All submitted entries touched on any or a combination of four (4) Sustainability Focus Areas: care for the environment, innate care for our people, positive societal impact, and digital nation.

This year’s GMEA anchors on the company’s commitment to the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals. The Globe Telecom adopted this advocacy to help create a Wonderful Philippines. “The critical role of media organizations and online communities in forming and shaping public opinion makes it imperative for technology organizations like Globe to encourage excellence in this field as we all aspire to effect societal change,” Globe Senior Vice President for Corporate Communications Yoly Crisanto said.

Globe Media Excellence Awards Finals Night

The participants were allowed to submit up to six entries which were published or aired between May 2015 to April 2016.  The Awards Night for the Globe Media Excellence Awards Visayas will be held on September 22, 2016 at the Radisson Blu Hotel in Cebu City as part of the Cebu Press Freedom Week festivities.

In all these, PRworks Inc. has been helping GMEA since it began in 2011.
