The “Luchetta, Ota, D’Angelo, Hrovatin Foundation for child war victims” has organized the twenty-second edition of the Premio Luchetta in memory of the death of Marco Luchetta, Alessandro Saša Ota and Dario D’Angelo. The three journalists were killed by a grenade in Mostar while working on a special report on child war victims in the Balkans. The Prize also commemorates the death of Miran Hrovatin, the cameraman who was killed in Mogadishu together with journalist Ilaria Alpi.
The Award is reserved for journalists and photoreporters who have distinguished themselves on the scene by dealing with the difficult theme of violence and oppression inflicted on the most defenceless victims: children. The goals and scope of the contest are in line with the spirit that has inspired the activity of the Foundation , which has hosted and provided medical care for children coming from all over the world and suffering from injuries and diseases that cannot be treated in
their countries.
