The Brazilian Report is delighted to announce that we have been made finalists in the World Association of News Publishers (WAN-IFRA) 2024 Digital Media Americas Awards, in the prestigious Best News Website category.

The Brazilian Report will be competing for the prize alongside two Argentinian nominees: major newspaper La Nación, and Todo Noticias, from media company Artear. Some 140 media companies put their names forward for this particular category, underlining just how impressive an achievement this nomination is.

Entries for this category are chosen for their “combined excellence in content and UX, as well as value to readers and advertisers.” The winners will be unveiled during this year’s awards ceremony, to be held on April 11 and 12 in Panama City.

The Digital Media Americas Awards bring together the best projects from North, Central, and South America in a single competition to recognize innovation, strategy, and creativity.

This year’s edition will also include new award categories focused on artificial intelligence, including Best Use of AI in the Newsroom, and Best Use of AI in a Revenue Project.

“WAN-IFRA recognizes the efforts of publishers that have developed unique and original initiatives in the field of digital media, with the help of new tools and formats, using the most advanced technology or driving innovation, from new approaches to digital subscriptions to the most impactful digital storytelling or native advertising initiatives, the Digital Media Awards are a reference for the industry regionally and globally,” reads the association’s website.

In last year’s edition, The Brazilian Report won the award for Best Newsletter for a small or local company. The nomination for Best News Website is proof that we are going from strength to strength in our quest to bring news on Brazil and Latin America to the world.
