The Foreign Reporter of the Year award is one of the honours given annually by The Press Awards in the UK.
Over the years, the categories have increased from 3 in 1962,[1] to 31 in 2014.[2] There have been many different awards in the area of international and foreign reporting, with some years having more than one;[3] the first category was International Reporter of the Year in the 1966 awards,[4] the current is Foreign Reporter of the Year.[2]
The 2007 awards saw the introduction of an International Journalist of the Year category; unlike the earlier International Reporter of the Year category from 1966-1989, this category honours journalists from countries outside the UK.[5]
