 Multimedia Science Communication Award

Podcasts and videos have become a critical component of modern science communication, and this award acknowledges the ongoing contributions of our multimedia membership.  Awards are given for superior science communication done by science communicators located in the Southwest or about science in the Southwest.  

We will accept work that is new and work that was published in 2020, but all contributions must contain no more than 30min of content (even if those 30min are excerpted from a longer production).

All submissions should be comprised of a brief, single-page cover letter that includes the following information:
  • Award Category 
  • Full Name
  • Email Address
  • Affiliation (Freelance/Institutional Affiliation)
  • A brief statement explaining the context of the original podcast/video.
  • A direct link to the multimedia content (Excerpted and original work can be posted on YouTube or whatever platform you prefer, in a secure or public domain, as long as the judges can easily access it via the link. Links will only be reproduced on the SWSWA website with your explicit permission.)
​Submissions open January 15, and close at midnight on March 1. Finalists in each award category will be highlighted on the homepage with brief author biographies. Winning submissions in this category will receive a $100 honorarium. 

Cover Letters and Writing Submissions should be emailed as a PDF to: 
Dr. Jacquilyn Weeks, weeksja@me.com

 NOTE: Each individual may only contribute ONE submission per award category.

Only active SWSWA members are eligible to submit awards, but joining the organization is simple, and can be done HERE. Full details on submission for each award category can be found HERE.
