German American Awards

The Awards commission seeks stories, pieces, reports, and newscasts that address an aspect of the relationship between our two nations. Reports can reference politics, economics, society, culture or current events.
The Awards ceremony is held each spring in Berlin. Award winners are notified in advance of their honor. Each award winner is invited to attend the award ceremony, and is provided flight and overnight accommodations in Berlin.
