In the Best Journalism category, the journalists Arturo Checa of Las Provincias, and Chelo Tuya of El Comercio were each awarded 7,000 Euros. The Jury also awarded a special mention to the Society Section of the EFE Agency for its involvement and journalistic work. The Special Jury Award for the Outstanding Personality in the struggle against gender-based violence was given to the MP Carmen Quintanilla Barba as recognition for her distinguished work in supporting women victims. The Jury also granted a special mention to the film maker Icíar Bollaín for the important role cinema plays in portraying and raising awareness of gender-based violence as a social problem.
