The annual Genesis Awards pays tribute to the major news and entertainment media for producing outstanding works that raise public awareness of animal-protection issues. Recipients are honored in a wide range of categories for highlighting emerging issues, or bringing a fresh perspective to long-standing ones.

For 20 years, the Genesis Awards has been honoring individuals in the news and entertainment media whose outstanding works have spotlighted animal issues with courage, creativity and integrity. The Twentieth Anniversary Genesis Awards will celebrate both the coverage of 2006 and the most memorable moments of the past two decades.
