Congratulations to our newsroom colleague Yvonne Murray who was recently announced as an award finalist by the United Nations Correspondents Association. The UNCA chose Yvonne as the Bronze finalist of the Elizabeth Neuffer Memorial Prize for her coverage of the UN and UN agencies.
The United Nations Correspondents Association (UNCA) invites media worldwide to submit entries for its annual UNCA Awards for best print, broadcast (TV & radio) and online, web-based media coverage of the United Nations, UN agencies and field operations. The prize for online and print coverage is named in honor of Elizabeth Neuffer, the Boston Globe bureau chief at the United Nations, died while on assignment in Baghdad in 2003.
