Amnesty International UK Media Awards 1995

Last updated

The Amnesty International UK Media Awards 1995 ceremony was the annual event held by the Amnesty International UK Section to honour journalists and media professionals whose work significantly advanced public awareness of human rights issues globally. The awards were contested across five main categories: National Print, Periodicals, Radio, Television Documentary, and Television News. A notable feature of this year was that two separate awards were presented in the Television Documentary category. The ceremony was presented by Pierre Sané and hosted by Peter Snow. The overall winner, and recipient of the Television News award, was Sue Lloyd-Roberts of BBC Breakfast , for her crucial reporting on China's notorious 'laogai' (labour camps).
