Awards and recognition are part of the competitive world of newspaper design. To earn awards in a single year is a huge accomplishment in itself. But to consistently reap them for five straight years, and counting, is testament to high standards of quality.
Gulf News now has a total of 116 awards and recognitions from the world’s most prestigious newspaper design and illustration organisations — Malofiej, The Society for News Design (SND), the World Association of Newspapers & News Publishers (WAN-IFRA) and World Press Cartoon. This year, Gulf News continues its pursuit of excellence.
Here's what key staff members and an expert say:
The international design awards won by Gulf News are yet another feather in our cap. We are proud of the achievement by the design team. It shows teamwork is important and delivers success. The recognition conveys that Gulf News is appreciated globally for its innovation.”
