New media writing award opens doors to talent from the CPLP, including Cape Verde

Creativity knows no borders, and now writers and content creators from Cape Verde and the other CPLP countries have a unique opportunity to shine on the digital scene. With a £2,000 prize at stake, this initiative aims to recognise and boost talent that explores new media, from blogs and podcasts to videos and social networks. If you have a story to tell or an innovative idea to share, this is your chance to gain visibility and financial support.

What is the prize and who can take part?

This competition is aimed at content creators who use digital platforms to express their ideas, whether through text, audio or video. The scope includes all the countries of the Community of Portuguese Speaking Countries (CPLP), which means that Cape Verde is fully involved. Participants must submit original works that stand out for their quality, innovation and impact on the public.

Why should Cape Verde pay attention?

Cape Verde has a rich cultural tradition and a growing community of digital creators. This award not only offers a financial incentive, but also the possibility of connecting these talents to a wider network of professionals and opportunities. In addition, the award can serve as a springboard for future projects, whether in literature, journalism or digital entertainment.

How to apply?

The application process is simple and accessible. Those interested should send their work via an online platform, accompanied by a brief description of the project and its potential impact. The evaluation criteria include originality, cultural relevance and the ability to engage the public.
