Alzheimer Europe and the Alzheimer Europe Foundation are delighted to announce the finalists for the 2024 edition of their Anti-Stigma Award. Following the great success of the initiative over the past two years, the 2024 edition was launched, with the aim of recognising a European journalist for an article, news story or documentary which has contributed to combating stigma and promoting a positive image of dementia and people living with dementia. This year’s Anti-Stigma Award will consist of a cash prize of EUR 5,000 for first place, a cash prize of EUR 2,500 for second place and a cash prize of EUR 1,250 for third place, each of which will be accompanied by a trophy. At a recent meeting of the Anti-Stigma Award committee, 11 shortlisted journalists presented their work and the top three were chosen among them.
The finalists are (in alphabetical order by surname):
• Ofelya Kamavosyan
• Andreas Kriemaier
• Magnus Renggli.
The winner will be announced during a special award ceremony as part of the European Parliament Dementia Day, taking place on 10 December 2024, in Brussels (Belgium). More information can be found at: https://www.alzheimer-europe.org/our-work/anti-stigma-award/anti-stigma-award-2024
