DEADLINE: Online News Association's Online Journalism Awards

This annual awards competition, administered by the Online News Association (ONA), honors excellence in digital journalism from around the world. In all categories, judges will give weight to the quality of the journalism, digital innovation and the impact of the projects.

The 2023 OJAs feature 58 awards across 23 categories. Four of the awards come with prize money totaling $32,000: science reporting, community-centered journalism, investigative data journalism and climate change reporting. In all categories, judges will consider the quality of the journalism, digital innovation and the overall impact on the intended audiences and society at large.

The ONA community will celebrate selected award winners and finalists at the 2023 Online Journalism Awards Ceremony and Banquet on Aug. 26 in Philadelphia, the closing event for the 2023 Online News Association Conference (#ONA23).

Entries are due May 25, 2023, 11:59 p.m. EDT (UTC-4).

Much like the web and journalism, the OJAs evolve each year. For 2023, there are new and updated categories.
