Top English national newspaper, The Guardian, has just published - on-line, its shortlist for its prestigious international development journalism prize. We are delighted that Sohm Schools Support friend and relative, Sarah Shearman, has joined that illustrious list of 12 journalists, from an original entry of around 500 articles.
The shortlisted journalists will have their articles published in a future supplement of the paper and be invited to do some blogging and writing for the paper, on international development issues, in the future.
The prize winners will be announced later in the summer. But we'd like to congratulate Sarah now for her great distinction in making this highly-regarded short-list.
Sarah may end up as a prize-winner. We believe that the people of The Gambia, and of Sohm in particular, are real winners for having their plight highlighted in such a professional way.
Sarah's article and that of the 11 other shortlisted applicants can be found from the Guardian's website, here.
We'll keep you upto speed with further developments in this great story, as they emerge.
