Women working in any industry and country can apply. One winner each from the Middle East and North Africa, Latin America, Europe, North America, Sub-Saharan Africa and Asia-Pacific will be chosen based on the project’s creativity, sustainability, impact and its overall quality and clarity.
Last year’s winner from the region was Sima Najjar from Jordan. Najjar is the founder of Ekeif.com, an online portal that publishes “how-to” videos for the Arab world.
