The Commission on Filipinos Overseas (CFO) is now accepting nominations for the Migration Advocacy and Media (MAM) Awards.

Filipino individuals and practitioners in the fields of print, radio, movie, television and advertising and Internet based in the Philippines and abroad are eligible for nomination to the awards, in addition to government and private media outlets and institutions.

“Entries must have raised public awareness on issues on Filipino migration, advocated the cause of Filipinos overseas, and promoted a positive image of Filipinos overseas,” the CFO said in a statement.

Entries can be sent to compete in six categories: print journalism (best media print), radio journalism (best radio program), television journal (best television program, which can either be a talk show, investigative journalism, TV special or documentary), film media (best films and videos, whether full length or documentary), interactive media (web-based publications), and advertisement (best print, radio or television commercial or advertisements on issues concerning migration.)
