# Redkollegia

Redkollegia (Russian: Редколлегия, lit. 'Editorial Board') is an independent media award established by the Sreda Foundation headed by Boris Zimin to support free professional journalism in Russia. In 2015, after the Sreda Foundation was closed, charitable activities of Boris Zimin are carried out through the Zimin Foundation.
The prize is awarded monthly to several authors.
The organizers of the award believe that in this way they will be able to “help those who maintain high professional standards in Russia at a time when free and high-quality journalism is under pressure from the state, and the human rights to freedom of expression and free access to information are systematically violated."

## Rules

Redkollegia operates with the Founder's aim of providing monthly monetary incentives to Russian journalists who have exhibited exceptional expertise, civic duty, and individual bravery while fulfilling their professional obligations. Redkollegia takes on the responsibility of proposing nominees for the prizes. The Monthly Prize can be suggested to be granted to a single candidate in full or distributed among multiple candidates.
Redkollegia is awarded to a specific author or group of authors for a specific journalistic text (investigation, reportage or interview) published in any available way: in the media, on a personal website, on a social network. The main selection criterion is a high professional level of the text. The audience and the number of readings do not matter. The minimum prize is two thousand dollars.

* Taisiya Bekbulatova
* Evgenia Volunkova
* Andrey Zakharov (journalist)
* Yelizaveta Osetinskaya

* Maxim Solyus — editor at the Organized Crime and Corruption Reporting Project, former editor in Kommersant, Vedomosti, RBK
