Young journalists need support, encouragement and inspiration and sometimes those from a minority background need that little bit more coaxing. Newsrooms still remain underrepresented, despite the best efforts of everyone to recruit talented and dynamic young ethnic minority reporters.

In association with the Daily Mail, the Asian Media and Marketing Group (AMG) is launching a hunt to find the country’s best young journalist from an ethnic minority background. We are looking for you to nominate a journalist (or several) who you feel has already shown great commitment, flair and enterprise. The only criteria other than ability and talent is that they must be under the age of 30.

Closing date is Monday 6th August 2007. Forms can be obtained from calling: 020 7654 7745.
The winner will receive a week’s internship at the Daily Mail.
