This year's winners

6th Annual Shorthand Award Winners

This year we celebrated stunning digital stories — and exceptional digital storytellers — from around the world at our second virtual Shorthand Awards.

We received almost 200 nominations across six categories, which were narrowed down to a shortlist, with the winners decided by our expert judging panel.

The submissions to the sixth annual Shorthand Awards were the most inspirational yet.

Thank you to all those who nominated a story or voted in the awards. A big thank you also to our judges: Dr Caroline Graham, Jonathan Crossfield, Bernie Borges, Meghan Ford, Scott Manson, and Megan Fleming.

The winners of the 6th Annual Shorthand Awards are …
