The True Story Award has no political, ideological, or economic objectives. It merely seeks to acknowledge exceptional journalism.

An independent foundation will bestow the True Story Award, which recognises journalists who have excelled through the breadth of their research, the excellence of their reporting, and the social impact of their stories.

The True Story Award 2024 will feature three authors from each of the 12 categories. At the end of May, they will receive an invitation to the True Story Festival in Bern. The meeting of journalists from all over the world and the interaction with the audience in Bern form the foundation of the award. The three winning texts will be chosen on-site by the main jury, which consists of seven members and includes representatives from all five continents.
