The Greek Herald and Digital Editor finalists in NSW Premier’s multicultural media awards

·

The finalists for the 2024 NSW Premier’s Multicultural Communications Awards (PMCAs) have been announced and The Greek Herald and its Digital Editor Andriana Simos have been shortlisted in two categories.

The Greek Herald has been named finalist for ‘Publication of the Year,’ while Miss Simos is up for ‘Young Journalist of the Year.’

The Greek Herald and Miss Simos have been finalists in the PMCAs for the past three years, with Miss Simos winning ‘Young Journalist of the Year’ and ‘Best Audio-Visual Report’ in 2021. 

Publisher of The Greek Herald, Dimitra Skalkos said the recognition “underscores the vital role we play in a multicultural society, where information and connection are paramount.”

“Through our commitment to delivering timely and relevant news, we strive to inform and unite our community, celebrating the rich tapestry of cultures that make us stronger together. We believe in the power of communication to bridge gaps and foster understanding, ensuring every voice is heard and valued,” Ms Skalkos said.

Miss Simos said being named a finalist in the PMCAs was a “proud” moment in her career and something she would not take for granted.

“The strength of the Greek community is the cornerstone for all the work I do, and to shine a light on that is a profound honour. This achievement is founded on the unwavering support of my wonderful family, my colleagues at The Greek Herald, not to mention all the community members I’ve had the privilege to interview and work with over the years,” Miss Simos added.

The PMCAs celebrate excellence in the multicultural media and marketing industry, recognising journalists, editors, and publishers across print, radio, TV, and online platforms.

The awards also recognise those who have effectively engaged and communicated with diverse audiences, promoting community harmony and unity through innovative storytelling and marketing campaigns.

The winners of the PMCAs will be announced at an award ceremony in Sydney on Thursday, October 17.
