Over the past 17 years, the National Press Awards attracted more than 20,000 press works, showing the great attention and significant participation of the press agencies and the public.
The works wining high prizes are those with serious and elaborate investment and many creative and vivid ways of expression as well as clearly expressing the capacity for digital transformation and journalistic innovation.
In honouring their creative achievements, the National Press Awards have become a great source of encouragement for journalists around the country.

The conference received many opinions and presentations about current problems and inadequacies from the participants and journalists’ associations of provinces and cities around the country, outlining solutions and ideas to improve the quality of the Awards.
The delegates also clarified the contributions of the support programme for high-quality press works towards improving the professionalism of journalists and enhancing the quality of the press works; the selection of high-quality works to participate in the National Press Awards, provincial press awards, and other specialised press awards; the processes and regulations in work appraisal; and the procedures for contract signing, payment settlement, and financial-accounting issues.
