Free Media Awards (formerly: Gerd Bucerius Prize for Free Press in Eastern Europe, German: Gerd Bucerius-Förderpreis Freie Presse Osteuropas) is the press prizes awarded by the two foundations The Fritt Ord Foundation and the ZEIT-Stiftung.

History and prize consideration

The prize was launched in 2000 by the ZEIT Foundation and was called the Gerd Bucerius Press Prizes for Eastern Europe (German: Gerd Bucerius-Förderpreis Freie Presse Osteuropas). The prize is named after the German politician and journalist Gerd Bucerius. In 2004, after the ZEIT Foundation began cooperation with the organisation Freedom of Expression Foundation (Fritt Ord), the prize was presented jointly.

The prize is awarded to journalists and media in Eastern Europe, who are distinguished by their quality, professionalism and civil courage. Organisations consider nominations after consultation with external experts. Each year, an independent jury selects the winners based on these nominations. Three to five awards are awarded per year.
