Search for Common Ground has announced the recipients of this year's annual Eliav-Sartawi Awards for Middle Eastern Journalism. These Awards are given annually to recognize and encourage journalism that contributes to better understanding between people in the Middle East. The winning articles provide insight into regional issues and debates, contribute to political dialogue, expose readers to new perspectives and help to lay the groundwork for peaceful solutions to Middle Eastern conflict.
The awards were conceived and funded by J. Zel Lurie, veteran American journalist, Columbia J39, who began his journalist career in 1933 as the Palestine Post's first reporter. Mr. Lurie sought to give recognition to journalists whose work promotes greater understanding between Arabs and Israelis.
