The evaluation committee did not have an easy task due to the number of stories received, as well as their quality and diversity in terms of coverage of topics. What the journalists predominantly dealt with in the submitted stories were the culture, language and tradition of Roma and Egyptians, their social and economic situation, underage marriages, and examples of successful individuals and positive practices.
