LUCIA GORACCI

“HUMAN RIGHTS JOURNALISM” Award

Where the news, the most difficult, the most intensely involving, required the presence of those who could propose it to the public, Lucia Goracci has always been there.

He did it from his first moments of professional activity, because soon his writing was the world.

From his voice and his images the Italians lived and shared the fact of the moment.

Lucia descends with courage, extreme courage, as a reporter from the Syrian and Iraqi border. From the front of this immense tragedy tells the experience of those who still remain attached to his land.

It tells the heroic presence of women who face this reality and who despite the extreme danger can live the role of mother and fighter.

Of these women who are the victims, the most victims of a reality that they can only ever endure, Lucia's voice has proposed an exciting and engaging fresco, as the image of the face of the nineteen-year-old heroic maestrina remains enthralling in the mind of the spectator of Kobane.

In addition to the applause, thanks extraordinary Lucia.
