Gaby Khazalová first Czech to win the European Journalism Award
Gaby Khazalová, Czech journalist and deputy editor-in-chief of Deník Referendum, is the first Czech to win the European Journalism Award. She won the award for her part in an international project called Cities for Rent, in which journalists mapped the ownership structure of real estate in major European cities. The aim was to find out which companies buy real estate across Europe, where they pay taxes and how this affects the lives of tenants. The award comes with a financial reward of 10,000 euros (245,000 CZK), which the journalists plan to invest in their further work.
