The Natali Prize for Journalism: Excellence in Reporting Human rights, Democracy and Development and the IFJ Journalism for Tolerance Prize, supported by the European Commission, are both open to print and on-line journalists from Africa.
In 2002 Raymond Archer, winner of the Natali Prize for Africa, scooped the Gold Medal Award for his three-piece report on a Swedish-Ghanaian deportation scam published in the daily Ghanaian Chronicle.
The IFJ also monitors closely attacks on press freedom in Africa and assists African journalists who are persecuted for their work.
