The European Press Prize is an award programme for excellence in journalism across all 47 countries of Europe. It was founded in 2012 by seven European media foundations. Nominations open each year on November 1st and close on December 31st. The 2014 awards will be presented at the JP/Politiken headquarters in Copenhagen on April 13th 2015. ==Mission and values== Good journalism is one of the hallmarks of civilised society. Brave journalism keeps freedom alive. Inquiring journalism is essential in a flourishing democracy. And thoughtful, open-minded journalism helps bind people of different outlooks together. Stirring public debate, illuminating complex issues for readers through investigative journalism and holding the institutions of power to account have always been at the core of quality journalism. They must be the cornerstones of a future society and a dynamic democracy. The European Press Prize reflects these aspirations. They are the initiative not just of media companies in one country or one commercial situation. They come from one of the most powerful forms of media ownership, which must, at root, count quality and public service as part of its challenge. Seven foundations, all with strong media connections, have come together to start these awards – open to entries from all 47 countries of Europe as defined by Council of Europe membership. Their aim is simple: to salute and encourage journalism of the highest quality wherever it can be found in our continent. If journalism matters, then excellence matters. They hope to make these awards symbols for journalists and their readers right across the continent – and to show that the role of journalism itself is vital in informing healthy societies and helping nation to speak fruitfully to nation. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「European Press Prize」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
