The Universidad Europea del Atlántico (European University of the Atlantic, UNEATLANTICO) will celebrate from 18 to 22 May the I Week of Journalism Uneatlantico, an appointment that was born with the aim of giving greater visibility to the Degree in Journalism and value creativity, the critical look and commitment to the current situation of its students
Coinciding with this week, the University has called for the I Uneatlantico Journalism Award 2025, aimed at journalism students enrolled during the current academic year. This type of initiative aims to promote journalistic excellence through research, creativity, information rigor and ethical commitment.
Participation may be individual or in teams of up to three people, and each participant or group may submit only one work. Projects may be developed in different ways: a written product with an extension of between two thousand and four thousand words, with the possibility of including graphic material; a podcast lasting between fifteen and thirty minutes; an audiovisual report or documentary with the same duration; or a work of photojournalism composed of between ten and fifteen photographs accompanied by their corresponding photo feet and an introductory contextual text.
The topic will be free, and must address issues of social, cultural, political, economic, scientific or human interest from a strictly journalistic perspective. All works must be original and unpublished, entirely produced by their authors. Content generated in whole or in part by artificial intelligence tools will not be supported.
Projects must be submitted using the form provided for this purpose, ensuring anonymity during the evaluation process. The delivery deadline is Thursday, May 7th. The jury will be composed of professionals active in the field of journalism and communication, who will value aspects such as journalistic quality, originality, informational rigor and technical quality of the works.
The winning project will receive the I Uneatlantico Journalism Award 2025, which will include a trophy, an accreditation diploma and a subscription to El Diario Montañés On+. The award ceremony will be held during the I Journalism Week, thus reinforcing this initiative as a key space for training and professional projection of future journalists.
In addition, the University has opened a second call aimed at external students, specifically students of Baccalaureate, Vocational Training and training cycles of the branch of Communication. This modality aims to bring journalistic practice closer to future university students, encourage vocations and offer a space where they can demonstrate their talent, creativity and commitment to the present day from stages prior to higher education.
