The 2009 European Young Journalist Award invites print, online and radio journalists from the 27 EU member states, the candidate and potential candidate countries to participate and share their vision of the European Union and enlargement.    The deadline for submissions is the 31 May 2009.

Journalists can write articles or produce radio clips on anything related to the European Union. This is an opportunity to express their thoughts on the future of the EU including the enlargement of the European Union.

For example, submissions could include:

– 20 years since the removal of the Iron Curtain: has the integration with the Central and Eastern European countries changed the face of Europe?

– Five years after: the impact of the accession to the EU of the ten member states that joined in 2004

– The quest for EU membership: why is the European perspective crucial for the Western Balkans and Turkey?

– Accession into the EU of new member states: good for the EU or good for the acceding country?

– What does belonging to the EU mean for you/your country?
