N1 TV journalist Tamara Stojanovic won second place for her report “No One to Hear the Plea: Parents Have Been Asking for a Law on Caregivers for 10 Years” as part of an award recognizing efforts to fight discrimination and promote equality and tolerance.
The award is part of the Annual Media Awards for the best media pieces on topics related to the fight against discrimination and the promotion of equality and tolerance.
Now in its 9th year, the competition is organized by the Commissioner for the Protection of Equality with the support of the OSCE Mission to Serbia, marking November 16 – the International Day for Tolerance.
