hello tomorrow! - Sustainability press award

Budapest, October 7, 2013 18:00

Magyar Telekom and the Sustainability Media Club announced a competition for a media award. Hungarian publications reporting progressively and transparently about sustainability issues, including environmental, social, economic phenomena, initiatives or situations can be entered by May 2014. Providing a more than half year long nomination period parties issuing the competition intend to promote socially minded thinking and changing attitudes.

Why do Magyar Telekom and the Sustainability Media Club announce a sustainability press award for the third time? Because we talk a lot about this but not enough. We are acting upon it but we are not enough yet. Many do not even know what to associate the term sustainability with: responsibility, selflessness, peace, modesty or the ability to retain our existence? One or any of these: the topic is at hand.

Applicants are expected to enter materials for the sustainability press award in three categories: From below : case descriptions and stories effecting residents, individuals and minor communities, examples for solutions requiring initiatives from below,

Wide angle : outlining Hungarian social, environmental and economic phenomena, impacts and counter effects, green innovation and education topics,

Blog : theme sites discussing topics of sustainability and responsible actions are warded separately, by assessing content, quality and readership.

Telekom awards the winners of category From Below and Wide Angle with HUF 500,000 each while the winner of the Blog category receives HUF 300,000.

Magyar Telekom has been engaged with environmental issues related to its operation since 1996, created a separate environmental and sustainability organisation in 2000 as one of the first Hungarian companies to coordinate the company's responsible operation processes and sustainability objectives. The company released its first sustainability report ten years ago and is founder of the Sustainability Media Club.

The Sustainability Media Club comprises the community of responsible media and their associates. Members include representatives of press organs which are open not only to casting criticism on negative phenomena of the world but also target betterment, while they appreciate good examples by actively participating, further to reporting on them.
