In Partnership with The Washington Post Live
For 32 years, the Courage in Journalism Awards have honored brave women journalists who refuse to step aside or be silenced in their pursuit of the truth. The 2022 awards took place amid heightened global tensions, from Russia’s war on Ukraine to the consequences of the Taliban takeover in Afghanistan and numerous other authoritarian crackdowns and human rights abuses in countries around the world. During our live event, we recognized the women journalists at the frontlines of these challenges who are intrepid in their commitment to reporting.
